∙ 10y agoCat flea meds on a dog - or vice versa - is asking for trouble for your pet because the chemical contents are different.

∙ 10y agoIf the dog is a similar size to a cat, then yes. You have to make sure the animal can't reach the collar with its mouth as it may make it sick.

You should report it to a vet immediatly.

Depends what meds. Powder won't hurt them but the stuff you put between the shoulder blades may if it's too large dose.
What to do put dog flea med on cat?
You should not put flea meds for dogs on cats. They are much too strong and will make the cat very sick if not actually kill it. If you have done this by mistake, the cat should be bathed thoroughly with a gentle shampoo IMMEDIATELY. Do NOT use a flea shampoo to bathe the cat!

you put right behind the collar bone and down the spine.
Can you put the word FLEA in a sentence?
The flea jumped on the dog and the dog ran away crashing into a pole thus he fainted.
Your Cat has tapeworm your dog was dewormed in October do you need to still get him checked out or dewormed again?
I would get your cat and dog dewormed for tapeworms, but it may be ideal to ask the vet first. Just remember that the flea is the intermediate host. In other words, the only way your cat or dog can become infected with tapeworms is for them to ingest a flea that has eaten tapeworm eggs. Your dog or cat could eat feces that is full of tapeworm eggs and never become infected with tapes, they have to eat the flea itself. A flea jumps on the dog or cat and the cat or dog bites at it and accidentally ingests it. Then they get the tapeworm. So deworm for tapes for both the cat and dog, make sure the medication says it will get rid of tapeworms. You can find this medication at your Vets office. You have to purchase a different one that is safe for cats so read the label carefully, as cats and dogs need completely different doses. Never give a cat wormer meant for a dog. The next thing you have to do is to keep your animals from becoming re infected with tapeworms, is to keep the fleas off of them. Use once a month a flea & tick preventative. You just put it on topically, right on the skin once a month.
Are tapeworms contagious to other cats?
Cats or dogs or any other mammals cannot pass on the tapeworms directly to the other cat, dog, etc. It has to be passed on by a Flea. The flea is called the intermediate host. The eggs are passed out in the stool of an infected animal in little segments that look like grains of rice. If the animal ate that directly, he would still not become infected. The eggs have to be ingested by the flea who then passes it on when he lands on a dog or cat and bites them. Then the cat or dog can become infected from the flea. So that is one reason for flea protection. Use Frontline monthly or some other product that does the same thing on your cat or dog.
Is it okay to give a dog flea medication if you just bathed them with flea shampoo?
If you put it on him prior to the bath, not likely. Read the label. Some are water proof, some are not. Give your dog a bath, wait until he's dry and then apply the flea treatment. I have been told to wait till the next day to put it on after a bath... Apparently, this is because the flea meds are released through the dogs oil glands, and you wash the oil away when you bathe your dog. I have also noticed that, even though it is water proof, it's not always soap proof... some of them seem to be less effective if you give your dog a bath, say, halfway or so through the month. Someone once suggested "non-detergent" soap, but I have yet to find such a thing... I usually just give him a hose down if he's that dirty, or spot wash him, avoiding the application sites as much as possible.
Is it normal when a cat has worms for the worm to be pretty long coming out in their stool?
No "normal" per se, but not uncommon. This is caused by the cat injesting flea eggs. Need to put the cat on Frontline or another anti flea medicine
Can you put savlon on your cat?
no because it gives them a illness a callled "Synarothies"
Do you put your dog down if it bites cat or dog?
NO
