Is it safe?

Yes. The active ingredient in FeralStat was FDA approved in the 1950s and has been prescribed by veterinarians for over 30 years to treat a number of feline disorders. It is also used extensively today in human medicine and has FDA-approval for extra-label use as a feline oral contraceptive.The key to this product's success is the miniscule dosage.

How do I get a prescription?

What does FeralStat cost?

A four-month supply, specifically formulated for your colony of 1 to 81 cats, is $67. The price decreases for larger numbers of feral cats.

How do I administer FeralStat?

Each packet of FeralStat is formulated specifically for the number of cats in the colony. Each prescription includes 16 packets, or a four-month supply. Mix the packet thoroughly with wet cat food and feed to all cats in the colony once per week.

What if a pregnant cat, male cat, or kitten eats FeralStat?

Although it is designed for female cats, FeralStat has been given to male cats, pregnant females and kittens who are sharing the food supply with no report of negative side effects.

In fact, some FeralStat clients say that not only are there no unwanted kittens being born, but also the general health of the colony has improved.

Should I use FeralStat year round?

Yes. Because it is administered at such a low dose, it is recommended for year-round use to ensure that there are no pregnancies.

What if I miss a dose?
