How long to wait to introduce a new mouse after parasite treatment?

You should wait 7-10 days before introducing the cats to each other. That way you can monitor them for any upper respiratory signs. I would be most worried about that. After the 7-10 days, if there are no URI signs you can introduce the cats to each other. Use proper technique - see link to an article below - to avoid behavioral problems. The best thing to do is treat all the cats with Revolution in 3-4 weeks just to be safe. It won't hurt them if they don't have roundworms and it will treat them if they do.

If the infection is cleared, wait a couple weeks and then consider repopulating the tank. Ideally, you should set up a quarantine tank for incoming fish before they go into the main tank. Monitor them for a week or two to confirm good health. You may even want to administer an antiparasitic medication while in quarantine to be safe.

Thank you for your question about your ferrets, and I am so happy to hear that your older ferret is doing better! Yes, you should be able to introduce your ferrets now that your older one is feeling better, but I would ensure that he is completely at 100% before doing so. And of course, doing this process slowly to ensure that the new ferret doesn't pick on your older one. I typically tell people to wait a couple of weeks prior to the introductions after they have been affected with coronavirus - this is because they often lose weight when they are sick and I want them to gain as much back as possible. I also like for their stool to return back to normal, and to ensure that they are back to their normal hydration as well. If you are questioning at all whether your older ferret is in tip top shape to be able to introduce to your new ferret, I would recommend a recheck examination with your veterinarian. Also, if there were any abnormalities on blood work values or anything else, they can also recheck those to ensure that everything is as normal as possible prior to the introductions. I hope that gives you a place to start, and again I am very happy that your older ferret is feeling better.

Dewormers generally work pretty quickly, I would recommend keeping them away for at least a week. There are several respiratory infections cats can carrier and infections can spread quickly between cats especially from a shelter. That 7 day period will give you time to schedule an appointment at the vet to make sure the kitten is healthy and make sure there is a feline leukemia and aids done to make sure she is negative.

I've found that if you wash your hands after handling Sierra and do not have any open wounds it is uncommon to catch this from her. Since you've treated her and are giving the medicated baths she should be even less likely to spread Ringworm. Follow your veterinarian's advice on treatment but if she's been treated now for two weeks or more she should be safe to handle. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Sierra.

To make sure 100% that Giardia is gone, ideally a fecal test should be performed. If clinical signs are resolved though, Giardia can be considered clinically resolved and Bebe can get in touch with the other animals. Please tell us more specifically what type of medication (natural stuff) you are going to give her, so we can give you more specific advices. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

As long as all the cats have been treated, it should be fine to let them around each other regarding the fleas. Do make sure that Salem has tested negative for Felv/FIV and is worm free/had treatment for worms before letting the cats together. Congratulations on adding Salem to your family!
