Catsdesire Newsletter
May 2012 Newsletter - Overview of Spot-on flea treatments and alternatives. The Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) has issued new cautions for spot-on pesticides, used to treat dogs and cats with flea and tick problems. Adverse effects are on the rise, and the first steps the EPA is taking is simply to raise consumer awareness to the potential of adverse events within these products. No product in particular has been named that we are aware of. Adverse effects range from gastrointestinal in nature to skin irritation, and seizures. In rare instances, death. Much of the data is limited to dogs, and is simply stated to apply to cats as with dogs. Using the products that are designed for dogs on cats is contraindicated. Small breeds are more likely to be affected. Seemingly the younger the pet the more likely there is to be an adverse reaction. Natural alternatives for flea and tick treatment are increasingly attractive given the risk and costs involved with mainstream treatments. Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is reported as a natural and safe way to kill fleas. It is composed of crushed fossils and cuts through the waxy coat of fleas and causes them to dehydrate. Make sure you use food grade. It becomes ineffective when wet. Garlic is another excellent substitute (there are some reports however it has been toxic to cats) Use with caution. Our suggestion is to try to get your furry friend to eat fresh, minced garlic, within ten minutes of cutting. Use a favorite treat. Use a very small amount of garlic, about 1/8 teaspoon. Brewers Yeast is another option for flea and tick control. The Internet is full of accounts using brewers yeast to treat fleas. In order to completely irradicate fleas you must treat all environments for at least 45 days, keeping in mind that the flea has 4 life cycles, Egg, Larva, Pupa and Adult. Making sure your cat is otherwise healthy will aid in your flea war! The 45 day intense flea battle should consist of; Daily flea combing, with weekly shampooing. Vacuum daily, disposing of vacuum contents quickly away from the home. Clean and wash the cats favorite sleeping spot daily. Watch for allergies as you use the Brewers Yeast. You can dust the Diatomaceous Earth (food grade) on your floors as well as lightly on the cat(s). Use Nematodes (small worms) on your lawn, they reportedly work best in shady areas and temperatures less than 85 degrees. This writing is intended as informational only.

Testimonials
“Wow, what a great box, I have always hated to clean the litter box, now I just throw it in the trash and make a new one. Price is well worth it to never have to do that chore ever again. My cat loves it too.”
Julia B. Wichita, Ks
“The cat’s desire is surprisingly easy to use, and is so convenient. I love not having to get nose and hands deep in a dirty litter box. I think this is truly a great, and well worth it product.”
Jennifer W. Portland, Or
“I just wanted to let you know that I LOVE your product. The cats love it, the cover decreases the litter box odor in the laundry room where I keep the litter box. I have two cats and I change the litter box out once a week on trash day. Perfect!!”
