If you only have a few rats Kitten/puppy is best. If you have more you can use Cat. If you have a lot like a rescue you can use Dog but use half the dose.
Alright thank you for the information lilspaz.! Recently my boys have been getting suspicious scabs and fur loss but I can't get a picture- it's right on the scruff so a classic spot. I was planning on treating them just to be safe.!
I'm treating my guys tomorrow and the vet said I need to separate them for 24h...is that true.? I haven't read that but I figured I'd check. I don't want to rush but I need to know as soon as someone can tell me-
My babies are getting treated today (yay.!) I still didn't find anything about needing to separate them for 24h.? I'd rather not but if they can get sick by grooming each other then I don't want to get them sick...
Is there any chance one of my guys could get poisoned..? My mother has successfully gotten me concerned so I felt the need to check. They tend to groom each other on the neck/scruff so I'm now.. Ansy.?
No poisoning. Try to distract then with a treat for a minute or 2 if you are worried just get the dose on the skin if you can. The Selamectin absorbs through the skin into the bloodstream very fast and all that's left is the alcohol
