Diamond Piggyfriend is very concerned about her friends the Jolly Rodents, as are all of the herd.

I used to use Advantage, produced by Bayer, as a flea preventative on my dogs. They never had any so either it worked or they never met a dog who had fleas. One tube ( half each ) would be sufficient for two piggies of the stature of Chester and Charlie. You would have to weigh Cat to know how much to use there.

I didn't know much about fleas so I had a look at GuineaLynx for some info and found a link to a useful website there.

http://entowww.tamu.edu/extension/bulletins/uc/uc-034.html The life cycle of the flea is very complicated. No wonder it is so hard to eliminate the little *******s. The site says that patience is a virtue when it comes to eradication.

Sorry to read that you lost most of your email. It is so easily done.

The Piggyfriends send their best wheeks and virtual hugs to Charlie and Chester.

Penny.
