I feel your frustration. We love our animals too. After loosing our 11year old dog Ruby the day after my 11 year old sons birthday last December 08 and our 1 year old cat Lancelot last September 08, our other cat and dog were just as lost as we were. So we bought a new puppy and a new kitten. With my loving kids and I they have found a new home and heaps of loving. However we saw all our animals scratching almost non stop, which we hadn't had before to that degree. So off to the vet I went and was told that they had ear mites and something called wandering dandruff
. The vet gave us Revolution for the cats and Advantage for the dogs. This seemed to work a treat , however the vet told us to leave retreatment till 3 weeks on. So we did, now they are scratching excessively once again
. We have reapplied the treatment just today and will do it again in 2 weeks and we hope with all our hearts that they will be itch free unlike us
. We are not sure as yet if we have Morgellons, as the doctors we have seen have put it down to me needing psychosis medication and my three sons 20, 13, and 11 to have just bites that all "normal kids" get from time to time
Anyway Kelly I hope wherever you live that you can get that Revolution for your cat as it targets ear mites as well as fleas and worms.
All the Best
