Why not keep your cat *inside* like any vet tells you to? Eliminates the problem and likely will help them live longer.

How the heck did you get it out of the cat's eye? I thought the barbs wouldn't let it go backwards -- or do they give way if you pull hard enough?I once extracted a foxtail from a cat's eye. I had seen the cat running around on my fences for a while but one day he came right up to me and that's when I noticed the foxtail stuck in the corner of his eye. He was obviously in pain but he never made any attempt to bite or scratch when I pulled it out. Poor cat either didn't have a home or had 'owners' who didn't care.
Where I live, though, foxtails are the least of the worries. I've found too many partial remains of neighbor cats to ever let mine outside.
Frontline is great stuff. My cats never brought home a single flea. I don't know how it works, but it works better than any flea collar I'd ever used previously.Cat owners should also know that over the counter flea meds are pure poison, collars included
...
Keep in mind also they package the bad stuff to look like the real thing you would get from the vet or online
Use Advantage or frontline -
Again check with the vet please before using that junk
Thanks for reading
Cats aren't indoor animals. The reason people think cats sleep so much is because when they're kept indoors with nothing to do all day, they get depressed, and anyone who's ever been depressed knows that it makes you tired and cranky. The effect is the same with any mammal. When they're let outdoors (provided nothing hunts them down and kills them), they don't sleep any more than humans do.Why not keep your cat *inside* like any vet tells you to?

People would live longer if they stayed inside and didn't do anything risky either, but what kind of life would that be? Life isn't much if it never accomplishes anything difficult. You've never seen a happy cat until you've seen a cat with a belly full of rabbit.
I read your post and his comment again and ignoring the American habit of saying "could care less" when they mean "could not care less", Luke's point was a good one - logical, lightly worded, and should have been all that was needed to highlight that you had been careless in your wording. You seem to have missed that. Your response was rude and doesn't do your cause any favours.Did I say all the pets would be dead??
I try to clue people in and I get a foolish reply like yours, maybe you need a dictionary to look up words like siezures and death.
Read it again

Animals can't speak for themselves, so they need caring - even passionate - people to speak for them. Good on you for taking that cause and making it your own. However, don't attack people simply because they gently point out your wording was careless or your response to correction was rude. Don't attack people by claiming troll instead of defending your cause. As I said, it doesn't help you to get your point across.It is not about my cause, it is about the animals, I can give you and your buddy some real troll sites, because it seems that is what you want to be.
You seem to lack the empathy for someone who had a pet die of this poison.
It is nothing more then insecticide
If one person reads this thread and takes a collar off a cat or dog I will have suceeded, while you have only failed at being a bootlicker troll for the other troll.
No need to ban me, I won't be back

What's killing cats in your neighborhood? Coyotes or something?
