Last year my cats and my sisters' in Bakersfield and my daughter's cats in Texas all had terrible reactions to Advantage. My male started falling off the stool he had been watching birds from for years, the female started running into things and hid beneath the bed, sister's cats started vomiting and DD in Texas said she thought hers had suddenly got the flu from bad weather.
Never again...I keep a couple of open jars of Diatomaceous Earth sitting near me and every few days put a pinch of it on the backs of their necks and rub it in. It seems to help a lot better than the boughten meds. And they do not have worms any more since I started mixing it up with their canned cat food treats. Used to have to get shots from the vet.
