"-Lost" spoke these words of wisdom in
:



I also read about heartworm medication solving mites. Is that any
good heartworm medication?

Also, they only give out heart medication if your dog has those
issues, right?

Nope, you give heartworm medication to PREVENT problems.

And as a side effect, some heartworm products given monthly also handle
worms and other parasites, depending on the product you use, and you and
your vet decide are the best choices for your dog.

Before starting, your vet will give your dogs a heartworm test to insure
they are heartworm free.

If they do have heartworms, your vet will not prescribe a preventative,
and your troubles are a whole lot deeper than just ear mites.



1. Where can I get "ivermectin" and is it available over the
counter?

See your vet

2. Um... you had the barn cats killed? Or did you mean removed from
the house? And were they stray barn cats or cats you owned? (Just
being nosy I guess, I do not pass judgment.)

I do not like cats.. judge away.


And since proper care of a pet IS expensive, I have a question. Why
collect more animals than you can afford to take care of properly? not
judging.. just curious
