Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Frontline TopSpot for Dogs on my CATS??
Is this going to work? I think it is~ but before I put it on my cats let me run it by y'all and see if I'm missing something.
So~ I went out to buy more flea/tick stuff yesterday~ a friend showed me that Frontline Top Spot for CATS had the exact same active ingrediant of "fipronil" in the exact same percentage at 9.7% as the Frontline TopSpot for dogs has. Both products state that the other 90.3% of the product is "Inert Ingrediants". As far as we can tell~ the ONLY difference between the Frontline TopSpot for Dogs and for Cats was the amount contained in the little applicators at 0.136 fl oz for dogs and 0.017 fl oz for cats. But both products COST $45..............
So~ IF I'm doing the math correctly~ AND I'm not missing something scary (I already checked~ Frontline TopSpot is NOT the product that is dangerous for cats to be around your dog when wet)...........then............
For $45 I can purchase 3 individually packaged doses of Frontline for Cats~
Or for $45 I can purchase 3 individually packaged doses of Frontline for Dogs~ use a sryinge to extract each individual packages into 8 cat size doses (yeah~ I think it's 8 doses in each one! 0.136 divided by 0.017 equals 8). So infact I would wind up with 24 cat size doses for the same $45 I would pay for 3 prepackaged cat sized doses?
Am I missing something?

You can use Frontline for dogs on cats. Just measure 0.5 mls and apply it on. It's what I do.

Thanks~ I actually got a lot of responses on a homesteading board I also post on. A lot of those people have been doing this for years. So last night I treated all the cats for about $15 when it cost me $90 to treat the same cats last month when I was buying individual treatments for them. Hopefully it works~ I really can't see why it won't~ and the money to treat all of our animals was becoming prohibitive!
