Re: Advocate Flea Treatment

Hi there,

I have not used it for a month now as our cat got ran over last month. We now have another new cat which we rescued from the CATS Protection.

When we was using Advocate it was done in the weight of the Cat i think. Something like upto 4kg for the smaller ones and then a larger packet for over 4kg i think. Our vets use to give it us from when she was kitten and we used it up until last month with no problems.

best bet is to ask your vet and also read on the advocate website about it

Chris

Re: Advocate Flea Treatment

i get advocate from my vet for my cats and dog, i'm not sure how much it costs as our vet has a VIP club where all their flea/worm treatment, chipping, innoculations and check up's are included in the price of £9 a month for each pet.

i have never had any problems with fleas or worms since i have been using it in the last 2 years

Re: Advocate Flea Treatment

I have found that Advocate is the only effective flea treatment for my five cats. They were riddled with fleas despite using Frontline regularly as directed and spraying the house and hoovering madly. My vet suggested Advocate when I described my problems and there was not a flea in sight after only 2 days. They've been flea free ever since and it seems to last a good 6 weeks between treatments. Love it. Couldn't recommend it more.

I just get it from my vet. About to go and buy some now and see how much it costs as I can't remember!

Re: Advocate Flea Treatment

Hi, needed to get my new dog neutered so started phoning for prices from poole to bournemouth and I think we are really being ripped off by some vets the most expensive was in Broadstone £200!! and most ranged from £90 to £127, but the cheapest was £78 from the pet practice in Kinson. (well done to them). One vet even quoted me £100 and when I phoned back for a possible appointment upped the price to £150.

Let google be your friend in this instance. See here for example: Advocate for Cats. You do need a vet prescription I believe so may as well pop down to the vet and get it from there first me thinks.

Indeed google is my best friend. Well tried on that site and your right you do need a vet prescription. Though, amazon market sell it for 6 pipettes for £30 which isnt bad considering with the post and package charges. Though many thanks.

Re: Advocate Flea Treatment

I have found this product on a site called discountpetcare.co.uk, and a prescription isn't needed, i just wondered if anyone has used this company as the site where it was previously advertised discountvetsupplies.co.uk seems to have a problem and it can't be ordered.
