Has anyone used this on cats? Is it effective in flea prevention? I have 2 indoor cats who run outside on occasion.

DO NOT USE ON CATS Essential Oils, as in this product, are TOXIC to cats! Lately I have noticed many such products advertised as Cat and Dog spray or shampoo... So Please Read Labels carefully and do not use Oils or Peppermint. . . .

Can't say really. I bombed the place for fleas and it was pretty effective. The fleas came back at one point, but it is really hard to keep them out anyways. But it was many months. Can't say that is because it lasted for that long though.

I would recommend just leaving it on as it is all natural just Lavender & Chamomile n will not harm them at all. It works great for that! Is your cat a little older? Also try playing with kitty before bedtime. I use them all the time and order the 3-packs on line which is cheaper and well worth the small price each month - especially when it works. Don't be shocked when powder comes off of the collar onto the kitty that is normal. I usually wipe some off of their fur and leave some still on the fur. Leave the collar on though.

I bought this along with Rosemary. I mixed the 2 oils together and put a few drops on my outside cat, for the fighting of fleas. So far there was no sign that this bothered his skin. and I have not seen any fleas on him either. Didn't use a lot because he is a outside cat he wouldn't let me spray him so this worked best for me that he just thought i was petting him. So I would say, try it either way- for what you are using it fo,r and see which works best for you.

There has been a lot of talk about it helping with fleas, so I thought I would give it a try. I saw no difference at all, but a friend said that you should rub it into the fur instead of on their food. I still have a lot left so I might try that the next time.

Dunno, I don't have fleas, but it does not seem to work on much. I have it, as instructed, plugged it into the wall where nothing is obstructing it and watched a small critter crawl up the wall not less than 3" away from it. I watched and waited for it to have a seizure or start walking in circles, but he crawled up in a straight line without concern until I had to squash it. I am doubtful this product works very well and wish I could get my money back to buy another bright idea that is supposed to eradicate.

That is not good news! We use it on our dog who is outside a lot and exposed to ticks. The cat is an indoor cat but he could always picksomething up from the dog. Guess we won't order that again.Did you contact the company? That shouldn't be happening.

I've never heard of someone using it on a cat but I don't see how it could hurt. The name of the product is even listed as PET shampoo on my page. There is no medication in the shampoo. If it was a flea shampoo I would say absolutely no. Hope it works out for you. This is the best shampoo I've found.

Yes. It's pricey at first but it states that it works for 8 months before replacement. When figured out between the monthly flea medicine I find it cheaper. It's worked wonders for my cats and the flea infestation I had. I'm on month 3. I love this product.

We have tried several products for the cat and this kills adult and newborn fleas. I treat the ground outside and then the animals and the combination works.

We have used the RobiComb on our dogs and found it VERY effective at zapping fleas also. The cats seem to be more sensitive to the sound, but the dogs don.t mind it at all.

I noticed dead fleas within 2 hours. I combed my cats (I have three) twice a day and noticed dead fleas or fleas that were really moving slow. It works for about thirty days. My cats have food allergies and I noticed on one of them a couple of hives but I think that that was the fish taste that was in the medicine that did that to her. For the price, I think it is a good product and well worth it if you are on a budget.

I tried this on my cat, and it works real well. Never any problems at all. Thanks frostbyte45

From what I've been able to tell, it dries a little quicker than some other brands, but is about half as effective as Frontline or Advantage. It would probably work fine for a cat that's indoors, but I would recommend another brand for one who might encounter fleas more often.

Did you ever find any answers about this? I am having trouble finding any information about using this for cats, whether topically or orally. I finally tried some on one of my big (about 12 pounds) cats yesterday. I rubbed about 2 millimeters of the paste between her shoulder blades. She was covered in fleas, and honestly I don't see any today. She showed no ill symptoms, but I am a little concerned about long term effects.

I bought my sister 5# of the material and she put in on her carpets and her cats. she still has fleas in the house. also they are on the cats but they are not as numerous as they were. I then purchased ultracide from a pest control store. She sprays this on the carpets and basement floors.. the basement is clear of fleas and areas of the house. best answer I can give you.

We just rubbed it generously in their fur. especially in the neck area. Give them a good bath and completely dry them first. You'll want to apply it to carpets and furniture as well. It's not a "quick fix" but it'll keep working as long as it's being used. DE works by getting under the exoskeleton of fleas and cutting them. It also works as a drying agent, drying them out, killing them. Good luck!
