Ticks (and of course fleas)
I just wondered what other people consider to be the best spot on treatment to kill ticks. Last year when our dog had fleas we eventually managed to get rid of them using Advantage, but have now gone back to Frontline spot on because that also gives the protection against ticks. He also has Billy No Mates in his food which…

Moving home with the furball
Hi everyone, happy Friday! I’m sorry for the long post! I wonder if any of you would mind giving me some advice on a house move with my cat please.

A cat seems to be living under our shed
Hello, Just wondering what to do. I've noticed a cat moving around the back of our garden a few times. Not thought much of it. It's not causing any problems and although my dog has noticed it, she's not behaved aggressively towards it and the cat has always scarpered before the dog could get too close (dog is very nosey).…

This follows in from my earlier questions about boosters (thanks for everyone who replied). My own vets health/booster plan does not seem anywhere good as the other one re boosters.
