Protective agent reviews

Last year I bought a Bars collar for dogs, the reviews about it were the most laudatory.The tool did not cope with its tasks. After only two weeks of wearing the accessory, he noticed that Fidget was constantly scratching himself, and upon detailed examination he found fleas.

I bought collars for village grandmothers cats. She has two of them and wanted to get something very budget. Therefore, she stopped her choice on a domestic manufacturer and bought two Bars collars, since one costs only 100 rubles. The first hours of the cats, after they were put on accessories, behaved somewhat strange. They were spinning around themselves, trying in vain to remove the devices that were incomprehensible to them. Then they calmed down, began to play and completely forgot about the strange ribbons. Despite the low price, the tool perfectly protected cats from attacks of parasites.

Got a flea leopard collar. With protection against parasites, he copes well, but the mount is very weak. It would be necessary for manufacturers to pay attention to this nuance, which discourages the desire to acquire another Leopard collar.

Andrey, Kirovograd

Very afraid to buy such a cheap protective agent. But as for my cat I bought a collar for the first time, I was worriedthat Maska does not want to wear it and the purchase of an expensive brand accessory will be a waste of money. Therefore, I bought a leopard collar. Strangely enough, the cat began to wear it with pleasure, and the fleas stopped attacking.
