    Re: Vets

    It's the best treatment for mites (the small black bug you found). And I'm sure 99% of the people here recommend it Oh, and good luck at the vet. You're deffinately not a bad owner because you are taking her to the vet (some people would just try and get rid of them). Stuff happens. As long as it gets treated early enough she should recover. Good Luck!!

    Oh and its PAM (prevent A mite) not the grease stuff you put on baking products. I thought the same thing when I first seen it.

    Re: Vets

    LMFAO. I knew somebody would confuse the PAM with the pam you use to cook. LOL. I been waiting for that one to happen. Yea PAM is great, I know a few people that used it due to mites, though I have never used it myself.

    Re: Vets

    Depends on the particular vet, and what's going to be done. I'd take a wild guess at somewhere in the neighborhood of $50-100 if you're having a wheezing problem checked out, complete with any meds needed. You should call and ask up front for an estimate of what will be charged if it's that worrisome.
