HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Audi should be fine. It is actually bad to use DOG Hartz on Cats. The other way around is fine. I would just call the 1800 number on the powder and talk to someone at Hartz to be sure. It is free to do this. I hope this helps and good luck!
