She said it goes by size and he's the size of a small cat.

We are trying to figure out how to get out of this screwy place without being screwed any more.


 


Nope. OT is authorized.
I haven't had any bad feedback either, and my last (and only so far) QA score was 99%.  I guess I just get overly nervous with the economy and being the only bread winner in the family right now.  Thanks!!!
Wowie, how did that happen? Did they take more than you authorized? Tell it. nm

Actually saw a poodle in the same carriage on the boardwalk for the 4th! It was NOT a happy camper,
though, and he was making short work of the netting while his owner was paying attention to an ice cream cone...
Eskipoo. American Eskimo/Poodle. Has his moments. :)

Yes, then what was "male veterinarian" if you weren't
Some people need better things to worry about.
All groomers I have used, do it. The veterinarian I used to work for told people the groomer

frontline
I use my little dog's frontline on my cats. Just make sure you take into consideration the size difference. My dog is 18 pounds, so I would split one of his tubes between 2 of my cats.

I know this is an old message, but if someone else drops in here to get advice:


I'm a chemist and I have an incredibly good vet and both of us have done our research.   My veterinarian actually sells me Frontline PLUS for large dogs.  It was their idea as cost effective since I have four cats. The Vet recommended the following dosage:  1/2 cc (mL) per cat, unless the cat is huge. 


My Maine Coon (13+ lbs) gets 1 whole CC. 


We have been doing this for years with absolutely no ill effects.  Two of my cats suffer from flea allergies and I start buying this stuff in March and keep it on them till November.


The difference is that Frontline has the exact same ingredients whether it is for Cats or for Dogs.  OTHER FLEA TREATMENTS do not.  Advantix is a great example, containing a compound that is extremely poisonous to cats (causes seizures and can lead to death).


Can Frontline for dogs be used on cats?

Am short on cash right now and my two cats are needing treatment.  Don't want to make them sick and figure that is why cats cannot use dog flea remedies.  Wanted to see if anyone had ever done this.  I don't want to take any chances with Charles and Cali <meow>


Thanks !!!


URGENT: I called Frontline myself and they said NO, sm

they do not recommend using the dog formula on cats.  You have to use the cat formula.  In other words, they take no responsibility for off-label use as they call it.  Not using the product as directed.  Sorry to be a budinsky, but this is scary stuff.


I thought we were talking about Frontline here. NM

Get Frontline for cats from that entirelypets.com - much cheaper - nm
x
Did anyone watch Frontline last night? I will NEVER shop in Wal-Mart again.
Cheap prices will not mean a thing if the middle class U.S. population is out of work.  I'd rather see my neighbors with a job and pay Target prices
Agree with Romey. I use dog Frontline - split one tube between my 4 cats.

I am sure you do, you 300 pound MT.
So, get a mirror and take a look at yourself. Get a membership to Curves and lose at least 75 pounds. The people getting attacked are the ones who like MQ, they are the ones who start it and if we respond, you make it worse. You think I am going to sit here and take crap from some lard a** who is ugly and lives in a trailer park? Doubt it. So, go type and don't worry about me, that is, if you can fit in your chair.
Have you tried calling the pound?
Wonder what they'd do with the goat?

I was visiting my MIL this week, and there were three beagles running around her yard. They kept coming up on her porch, so I led them out to the road. They followed me quite happily. Then somebody drove up in a truck and just observed us. I wandered over to ask if he was missing any beagles, and he was the dog catcher! He had been called about FOUR beagles. I just told him they weren't mine, but they sure were friendly! He asked if they'd come to me when called, and I said SURE! But then I left him to call the dogs himself, LOL. I can't help it if dogs don't like him. :oD
LOL it's POUND sand... nm

tiny font
Something is wrong here. It sounds like this board shows up in huge font on YOUR end, but it is about an 8 font on my computer. The main board, job seeker's board, and compary board show up tiny for me, but the other boards look about 12-14 font, which is MUCH better!
I have that setup and may have tiny lag...
but its only a bit more than I had using wav pedal without Vonage. I do find the C-phone pedal to be a different cat from my wav pedal, though, and not very fond of it! Mine has gone psycho a few times and does its own thing, totally unresponsive to controls. As they aren't too expensive I may just replace it at some point with another used one and see what happens. If your C-phone is not new, you might cosider replacing the pedal to see if that helps. I have been told the pin-plug setup is very sensitive and easy to disrupt. Good luck!
What about those of us with tiny apts. - sm
either 1-bedroom or studio? On what we make, that's often all we can afford. If they want me to have a separate room or screened-off area for my workstation, they're gonna have to:
"SHOW ME THE MONEY"! (Or else do they mean I have to turn my tiny, 5-foot x 6 foot bathroom into a home office? I supposed I could fit a tiny little desk and a laptop in front of the toilet, and then sit on that to do my work.........
How's this for a fun fact? A pound of flab is the...
equivalent of four sticks of pure butter.  Thought this would make some laugh.  I just started running and found this fun fact in one of my fitness magezines.  So that means I have 100 sticks of pure butter on my butt and thighs that I want to lose, LOLOLOL!!!
It sounds like if feel you don't want to pound
IC job on-line?
Sounds like tiny penis but not..lol

its not tinnitus, I have tried spelling tiniapitas


this has something to do with frostbite cold weather, HELP ANYONE


 


 


Stay tuned Tiny. It gets better.

My vet is teeny tiny. When she got pregnant with her last

baby she gained 60 pounds.   She probably weighs 98 soaking wet.   Anyway, her doctors put her on either Relacore or Cortislim and she lost the weight.   I have an overweight dog due to a disease and she said they are testing these drugs in dogs to see if it will help so I think there is some basis for it.  I took a drug similar that is supposed to block cortisol (can't remember the name, but it was cheaper) and it did help with my belly fat and soon I had to get new jeans because the ones I had  I had a handful of material on each side of stomach that hung down in my crotch area and it was very uncomfortable.  I even tripped once because I tried to step up over a low stone wall and there was so much extra material it constricted my leg movement and I wasn't able to lift my leg high enough. 


I am an emotional eater but I don't have problems with an overactive appetite, meaning I'm not ravenous all the time, never have been. 


 


I've just heard a tiny bit, but...sm
apparently Fusion also offers a transcription platform. I was just trying to see if there might be some comments on that. I appreciate your response.

come and take her ball and toss it on my keyboard! When I have enough and tell her to quit, she will lay it very sweetly beside my keyboard! She knows exactly what she is doing!

go to medical center buildings and sell yourself with your business card, your resume if required, and your own self-confidence!!  Good luck!! 
I cook mine low - about 225 or 250, for about 10 minutes per pound

There are laundries that will wash/dry/fold by the pound sm
I have taken in Laundry Mountain and had it all finished for around $40. Of course it's going to be different wherever you are. It did get me caught up and I was able to keep up with it for quite a while.
Be prepared to pound those keys for a national

and you have to be able to stay focused if you chose a national requiring set hours.  Consider your benefits.  There are pros and cons to working from home.  I would say unless you have a really good reason to type from home, then keep your day job.  I do fine myself because I am an IC, but I sometimes feel very isolated from the outside workforce.  I do have children, but adult conversation when you are pounding those keys all day is hard to come by.  The other duties you speak of on-site keeps you sane!  Just my opinion!  Good luck whatever you decide.  The money is just not there anymore working for these nationals unless you are willing to put on long days and pound out about 300 lph. 


Penny wise and pound foolish
Cheap ones don't save in voice files. They're hard to use so most likely your doc will not bother to pause or rewind for dictation. You may save some money now but you will end up wasting more time to decipher the recording. The best one is Olympus DS5000... every word can be heard clearly with that.
The font is very tiny for me. It never used to be this way. It suddenly occurred and nothing I do

I used it but it tended to "junk me up" so I took only a tiny dose...sm

for sleep, trazodone is better. It's an old antidepressant that's not really good for anything other than putting you out. However, if you need to wake up in the middle of the night (small children, etc.) you can pop right out of sleep and it doesn't have the hangover effect like benadryl or Xanax. So maybe ask about trying that. And I know, maybe I spelled trazodone wrong but I don't have my spellchecker on this board LOL!


After 15 years of being treated for depression on and off, and severe anxiety, I finally found a wonderful therapist. He got me out of a chronic low grade depression without any antidepressants AT ALL which I would have bet could not be done. So maybe think of that, too?


one of mine is tiny - nearly died from renal
failure last year - and in the process of trying to get weight on him and leaving food down his brother is up to a whopping 17 pounds now - he would give me lower extremity circulation problems!!
The tiny lettering was difficult for me to see and no pictures! LOL sm
I'm kidding about the pictures.

Do you think its handier to have the book on your desk or the program at the click of a mouse? Thanks for your reply!
DId NOT work. Had to pound the keys -- took it back in 2 days. nm

Hyphens are used because 32-year-old and 11-pound are compound modifiers. SM

A compound modifier is two or more words that act as a single modifier for a noun.


For example:


32-year-old male


11-pound weight loss


22-gauge needle


1-cm mass


 


Please, don't "ex-pound," I probably meant expand!. It's late! Thanks

I have an 80-pound, 3-legged husky under my desk--- keeps messing with the foot pedal! - sm
So I have dog now lying down somewhat quietly but breathing his hot breath on my legs, makes it hard not to laugh hysterically ---- certainly hard to work, but it is funny.
I have IE set to display text size as largest, yet this font is so tiny I can barely see it.

Most men can't hear the tiny tings, noises that cars make, and things like
 an alarm clock.  A doctor I used to work for did the same thing in the bathroom too.  But, I never heard a plop! Thank Goodness.
I was joking, cause the poster I responded to made a HUGE typo in a tiny sentence!

She's tiny, cute, rich, famous, drug free, and a great singer.
Oh, what a horrible person!  (sarcasm)
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
