For anybody interested not Cameron who I am not responding to. Here are two articles written by vets and one by a biologist.

As I say I know many vets that warn against and will not sell in many Countries. I have read reports and viewed many necropsies. Yes no conclusive proof as that seems impossible but the EMA review cases and hundreds are listed as probable cause.

So just go on the risk / reward and decide if you think it’s a risk worth taking.

And this, dear clients, is why we do NOT carry trifexis, comfortis, and bravecto, or simparica or vectra or any other topicals especially hard on cats.
We carry only heartgard or sentinel and nexgard for heartworm, fleas and ticks in dogs
And we recommend Revolution in cats.
Capstar is amazing at helping with severe infestations and is extremely safe.
That’s it.
There’s a large class action lawsuit with trifexis and comfortis also.
We support the products made and extensively safety tested , and safe since 8 weeks old
Bravecto and others are NOT approved until 6 months of age.
When we read the safety literature, we realized we were uncomfortable with the safety data.
Please tell your friends and help people keep their pets safe.
Always remember to buy these products from your veterinarian, not because of the money, but because merial backs its products 100% for a refund or treatment, if there should be any bad side effects.
If you buy them from some diverted pharmacy or 1800petneds, you have zero recourse for treatment costs etc.
That is so important.
Most vets will pricematch anyway.
We do, as we prefer you get a fresh and real , well stored product.”
