Hi all! So, I finally got my stray cat May May in my house. We bonded really well outside over two years so her transition has been okay, she can easily be coaxed out of hiding for rubs.
But, I know she is in a fragile place and I don't want to traumatize her with a trip to the vet yet. Last year I got her inside and had a vet do a home visit and it traumatized her so much that she broke out of the room and got into my crawlspace and eventually I opened a window and let her go.
So! I really don't want a repeat of that. She's healthy, and was vaccinated last fall, but I'm sure she's full of ear mites and parasites but my vet will not give me Revolution for her until I can bring her in for vaccines and a booster.
So I am just looking for ideas - is there anything I can do from home? Can I purchase Revolution somewhere and do it myself?
I do fully intend to get her properly vetted but I would like to wait at least a couple months and have some trials with carrying her around in a cat carrier and such.
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
