Drugs that fight parasites – Pet tip 256
The thought of parasites makes most pet owners shudder. Just in case we’ve forgotten what they are, a parasite is an organism that lives off another animal without benefit to that animal and without killing that animal. Parasites can be classified into external (ectoparasites) and internal (endoparasites). There are many different types of these critters, from roundworms to hookworms, tapeworms to fleas and ticks. Here is an overview of some of the drugs used to kill them, and a couple of pointers that you as a conscientious pet owner might want to be aware of.

Lucky was just that - a very lucky cat. I got him from the Humane Society in 1999 when he was almost two years old. He was the most affectionate cat you ever came across. He was not your typical cat, because he was always looking for affection. He loved to be pet and he licked a lot in return. He was a very good cat and I'll miss him very much. He was only 7 when he passed in the middle of the night. My dearest Lucky, I will miss you. Indy and Patches (my other two cats) are lost without you. Much love and happiness to you in heaven. Much love from Mom (Lisa).
