Is it safe to give Albon to a pregnant or lactating cat?

MA...I'll save this one for Traci to give a definite answer...but I've given it to pretty small kittens before so I would assume it would be OK...but I'd wait for Traci or davet to give you the final answer

The owner needs to ask her vet about this, the MSDS shows no indications for pregnant or lactating animals....I do know that in large animals, it can be transferred in the milk production, so I assume it is the same for cats and dogs. If she is treating for coccidia, her vet may allow for a temp cessation until the kittens are weaned, but it has to be his call.
