    Great price and is the same as Revolution Plus!
    This product is the only topical flea,tick Plus product that I have tried that does not cause a rash, other than the Revolution Plus ( which is the exact same product only labeled for the US). It doesn't have a oily residue that irritates cat's skin and it absorbs quickly! That means less stress trying to get it on the cat because they hardly feel it go on. It protects better than any product I have ever tried. I have outdoor cats and as long as I am consistent about treatment, they never have fleas, ticks or ear mites!

    Best treatment for my garden cats!!
    Firstly I would like to say thank you for this site that allows me to take care of my outdoor cats and provide them good health :) So, regarding the product..it works perfectly! My cats almost never at home (they have a whole gang outside) ..I used to buy much more expensive products that definitely didn't work quite as well as this one. No fleas, no ticks , no worms (usually, it did happen once for one of them so I bought a worm treatment also from this site that worked perfectly). I would appreciate a faster shipment:)

    Stronghold plus
    absolutely safer to use than other products that I have tried. Simple to use and apply, and great for peace of mind , especially when Allergic reactions create anxiety and more emergency visits to the vet Now I have two pest free pets, and far more economical than I would have thought.

    good as it gets
    It is very hard to find a flee and tick product that really works as good as stronghold plus and the price is an extra bonus
