Protecting Our Pets When We Are Trying To Help Them

Add comments

We try to look after them and supply proper care for them. Sometimes when we do what we think is right, things can still go bad. Pets, just like humans, can have allergic reactions to drugs that we give to them. Did you know that your pet may have a reaction to this medicine? Frontline and side-effects can include anything from skin irritation to neurological effects.

When you first administer a dosage of the medication you need to watch your pet closely for any appearances of a reaction. Fipronil is a pesticide. Methprene is an insect expansion regulator that controls the growth of eggs and larvae.

The medicine is applied topically between your pet's shoulder blades. It is not recommended for puppies under 8 weeks or kittens less than twelve weeks. Pets that are pregnant, sick or old should not be given the medicine.

One side effect can be skin irritation. Because Frontline is applied topically, the skin can become red and sensitive. If the pet gets the solution on their paw, they can accidentally spread it to other parts of their body like their eyes. This can result in a new problem because the medication can now travel to other parts of the body thru the blood. Your pet can also accidentally spread the drugs and then lick the area which has become contaminated. They can have barfing and diarrhea. All of these things can end up in weight loss. This can end up in more drooling than usual.

These issues can include sensitivity to overstimulation. This can make your pet become more twitchy and concerned. Your pet can become depressed. These are human feelings that we do not typically associate with our pets; but emotions that they can feel just as much as we will be able to. Once the medication is stopped, all these effects should go away also.

If you get the drugs on your skin when applying to your pet or when you are petting your pet, wash the area instantly with soapy water. You should not pet your pet directly after the medication is applied. You should wait for 24 hours. This reduces the possibilities of transferring the medicine to you.

In private life we try to induce or suppress love, envy, and anger through deep acting or "emotional work," just as we manage our outer expressions through surface acting. But what happens when this system of adjusting emotions is adapted to commercial purposes? Hochschild examines the cost of this kind of "emotional labor...
