Important Information

Fleas rise to the top of your pet's coat as they die, so consider it a triumph if you start seeing more fleas at first, after treating your pet. If you’re still seeing fleas after application, it may be because your pet has picked up new fleas from the environment, which may include other pets, surfaces and outdoor areas. It may take up to 30 days to break the entire flea life cycle. Additionally, you should also treat sources of new fleas (i.e., carpet, yard, etc.) to ensure complete flea control.

what are the side effects of catego flea treatment
Answer by ChewyJun 25, 2019
Monitor your cat after application. Individual sensitivity, such as slight transitory redness, erythema, scratching, pruritus or other signs of discomfort at the site of application, may occur after using any pesticide product for cats. If signs of sensitivity occur, bathe your cat with mild soap or shampoo and rinse with large amounts of water. If signs of individual animal sensitivity occur and persist, contact your veterinarian. Gastrointestinal signs such as vomiting or diarrhea have also been reported. If these or other side effects occur, consult your veterinarian or call Catego at 1-800-999-0297. Have the product container or label with you when calling your veterinarian for advice.

No fleas or hair

Cats have no fleas, but have huge sores and scans at application sight and have lost massive amounts of hair. I have indoor only cats and treat them only because I have dogs, that is their only exposure. I will risk the fleas if this is all I have as an option now. Not a good fit for me and my cats!

Horrible product, does not work

I have tried this product and it doesn’t work! My cats have so many more ticks than usual with the product. At first I thought I must have used it improperly, so I tried again. Same thing! I have 3 cats. What a waste of money, but even worse, their necks are all bitten up and I’m still finding ticks. Never will I recommend this rip-off product.

Works Well

Have been using Catego for several years on several different indoor/outdoor cats with no complaints. Have seen no fleas and only a occasional tick, the latter expected since, like all topical tick remedies, it won't kill the tick until they start feeding.

Don't Waste Your Time and Money

I think the ticks actually like this stuff. UGH! I bought it because it was supposed to be easier on older cat with sensitive skin. Since applying it, my poor old boy has been a total tick magnet. Most definitely will NOT be using this ever again.

Frustrated

I have twenty cats that are in out cats, so I’m always looking for an inexpensive flea treatment. I’ve tried quite a few none of which seem to work well. I’ve had some success with Catego how ever not all cats are equal. small cats it seems to last close to a month, larger cats a couple of weeks at best. A couple lost hair and had what looked like chemical burns on their neck. So use with caution is my advice..

The only thing that works!

I have had my cats on frontline and advantage for years and recently those haven’t been as effective at getting rid of fleas. My boy kitty has bad flea allergies and one bite can mess his skin up for days! Catego keeps the fleas off for the entire month.

Worked for about a week

I wish I could say this product worked well on my three cats, but it worked for about a week. I wonder if anything works anymore. We successfully used AdvantageII for several years, but then the fleas developed a resistance to it. Our cats are all indoor cats, but we live beside woods and get mice infestations during very cold and very hot weather. All of a sudden nothing works on them, not AdvantageII, Frontline, Catego and another product I bought locally. I guess my next step is to go the vet for a prescription product and hope that it works. I would say try it and maybe you will have better luck.

Fleas dropping dead after 5 hours

Started using Catego a few years ago. Bought it on a whim. Then, when using others line Frontline, the fleas weren't bothered. Always come back to this, and all 6 cats react well. Flea in the pic is one of several fallen off my cat after 5 hours.

FATAL IF SWALLOWED!?!?

Got the 6 dose box to treat our guys. Got the tubes ready to go and started to read the instructions and this pops out at me "may be fatal if swallowed." WHAT? That is definitely not going on my cats. It might be OK if you have just one cat but they groom each other all the time. Not worth the risk!

Affordable and Effective!

We have two indoor/outdoor cats that have used this for a couple years and it works GREAT! I only find a random tick here and there.
