Grooming

Brush and hand groom regularly. It is far easier to keep a cat free from fleas, than it is to try and clean up an infested one. Front Line purchased from your vet or from online pharmacies, is a most effective form of flea control. I have used this product for over 12 years, and have never seen a flea. 

Any cat given its freedom is liable to pick up the odd flea. Remember, fleas carry disease that can kill e.g. Feline Anaemia. If there are fleas on your cat, the chances are, they are in the house too, or very soon will be. Staykill or Acclaim used on carpets and furniture will ensure, that your house is free from fleas.

If your cat will have to wear a collar with your name and phone number, it is best for the kitten to get used to this from an early age, and for a very short time at first. Do not, however, leave a collar on permanently; take it off when the cat is in at night.

Collars wear away the fur and create a permanent bald area around the neck, so spoiling the wonderful pattern of your tabby or spotted kitten.

It is much better to microchip your cat. see microchipping page
