I have one 5 lb. bag unopened and about 4-1/2 pounds of the other one. I think some are squeamish of the idea. But, I do offer. Thanks again for the info. ! Marty

We have the Cat it dome style and the gang loves it. Going on 3 years and no problems. I take it apart and wash the parts about every 10 days. Easy to clean the motor as well. It has lasted much longer than I thought it would. Marty

Thanks for the input ! I too bought some for the carpet. It seems to help some with the fleas. Maybe more important is just vacuuming, but DE does make a noticeable difference. I put it down when the "gang" is outside and vacuum the next day. Always have the windows open for good ventilation...

I tried a half tsp. yesterday and again in the evening. Will try this for a week and maybe double for the next week. I have read of many people who use a heaping tbsp. daily ! Not sure about that. I'm still a little squeamish. I plan to be the guinea pig before feeding to kitty. All the while...

Anyone here mix it in with kitty food ? I've got some and I'd like to give it a try. Have read no bad results anywhere. Thinking of starting with 1/8 tsp. to start. Thanks to all who are using it, or know someone who does. Marty

We've been there many, many times. You'll know what is right. I prefer a natural lifespan. But, as caregivers we need to be prepared to make decisions. I will hope that you get some sort of solid information from your veterinarian. You are clearly a loving, caring person and your friend has a...

I'll give 'er a go in the morning and if things don't come out "clean" I'll head to the vet. Thanks for looking anyway. M

Nigel has one right near his "junk" if you will. I'm wondering if removing it will pose a greater risk of infection ? Remove and watch closely ? Let it come off on it's own ? I'm in favor of removal ASAP, but it's going to be very sensitive. It's close to as large as the ones we usually get...

We had a flea outbreak last year about this time. Frontline Plus on the kitties and for the first time I used DE on the carpets. Not sure if it worked or is working as it was a little later in the Summer. I'm planning on another dusting this week. We have a fairly short flea season here. I...

For the 3rd summer in a row, Mickey has turned into a complete schizophrenic - I think due to fleas - and won't come inside for anything more than to eat. Just meows shrilly until I let him out - jumps on high shelves, won't walk on the carpet, so I know fleas can mess with their heads...

You offer the better home choice. Good luck and hold onto that little one. Marty

We've got about 8 pounds of Dental Diet left. I will be looking into the suggested foods next time I'm in town. Going to check the Nutro website now. Thank You ! Marty

So, this has been discontinued. I have found a few places to stock up on it. Has anyone come upon a dry food with similar size and taste ? Fish and poultry if I remember correctly. One of our gang is and has been nutso over it for many years. I'm hoping to find something similar that he'll eat...

First time in 4-5 years that we've had an issue. We used Front Line Plus about two weeks ago. Now my food grade DE has arrived. Hah ! I ordered 10 lbs and didn't realize how much would be coming. Two large 5lb bags ! That's cool, it has an indefinite shelf life. Vacuumed my room about 5 days...

Where have you found the best deals on Food Grade DE ? Particular brands ? Permaguard, Green Sense, Viagrow, DE, Natures Wisdom ? Permaguard at Amazon is under $15 for 10 lbs.. What are your experiences. Marty
