My cat buddy Bordeaux had a bad reaction to Frontline Plus. Mom rarely uses it on us as we almost never go outdoors. Except of course for Buffy the Escape Artist Cat. Buffy jumps off the deck every so often and roams the yard. Mom's yard has a lot of seed ticks this year. So when Buffy went roaming this last week Mom decided to treat all of us with Frontline Plus. No problem for all of us - except Bordeaux. Bordeaux now looks like a commercial for Proactive Skin Care. See photo. The first several days it didn't look that bad. However the "spot" erupted into a horrible sore and Mom took Bordeaux to the vet. Now Bordeaux is on antibiotics and Butt Creme for babies. The sore is about ready to drop the big scab any day now. But Bordeaux is still miserable.
So lesson learned - never ever use a flea medication that is identified by the company as a pesticide.
Thanks for listening.
