Here's a question for youse guys. No resp. on RPC.health, but low
traffic there. (Sorry if there's a duplicate...)

Got cats. Got fleas. Cats are pregnant.

I've checked with not only our vet, but several vets that
specialize in cats in the orange county CA area - almost all of
them say there is no problem, except for one who says there are
concerns, but we should have no problems.

So what are your experiences? Any problems with advantage on
pregnant cats on your end? Anything I should be wary of?


Common sense and prudence says don't turn your
developing fetuses into toxic flea bait unless there is
strong evidence to the contrary.

But you knew that.


One more time in English please.

I do rescue work and we use Revolution on pregnant an nursing moms. It says
right on the label it is OK. Advantage says to 'check with your vet'. We
did, and got different answers.
