Mother Nature doesn't use synthetic chemicals. Neither do we. Our philosophy is simple and 40 years strong. We believe that dogs and cats should never be the carriers of synthetic chemical insecticides or pesticides. Ever. As seasons change, so does the need for flea & tick protection. Using our team of Nature's Protection™ products together helps create the ultimate defense for your dogs and cats with 2 easy steps to build immunity and combat fleas and ticks, naturally. Step 1: year-round essential protection from the inside out. Step 2: additional topical protection from the top to bottom. Step 2: From the top to bottom Formulated by Dr. Bob Goldstein, our Nature's Protection™Flea & Tick Herbal Collar for cats is the natural alternative to traditional collars that are made with harsh, synthetic chemicals. Each collar is infused with a natural blend of aromatic herbs and essential oils with a fresh, minty fragrance. The key ingredients in these effective collars are Peppermint, Virginia Cedarwood and Almond Oil. The preventative power of these gentle oils are non-offensive to your cat, but repulsive to fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, and other biting insects. Worry free – No phthalates, DEET, synthetic chemicals, insecticides, or pesticides and is safe for people, cats, dogs, and the environment. The collars are waterproof and do not need to be removed before entering the water. For maximum effectiveness, replace every 3 months. Please do not use this collar with a leash or to hold your cat. 1 collar per box (last up to 3 months) Made by our friends in France. Active Ingredients: Cedarwood oil 4.3%, Peppermint oil 4.3% Inert Ingredients: Almond oil, nylon, zinc stearate. Made with only naturally occurring flea & tick repellants - Virginia Cedarwood, Peppermint, & Almond Oil Virginia Cedarwood Oil – Known to be repellent to fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes, but completely non-toxic to animals and people. It’s considered to have antiseptic, anti-fungal, and antibacterial properties and be beneficial for the skin and coat. Peppermint Oil* - Medicinal, relieves stress, repels insects, and has a natural minty scent. Almond Oil – This gift of nature has a slightly nutty aroma that helps repel and protect from unwanted insects. It protects the skin while helping to spread out the active ingredients. It also helps the ingredients maintain efficacy during and after rainfall. *Any essential oil, in rare cases, may cause an allergic reaction. However, the oils we use in our Nature’s Protection™ products are at such low levels that the risk of any potential reactions are further eliminated. For cat parents: Cats don’t possess the enzymes glucuronyl transferase and therefore, their liver requires more time to eliminate phenolic compounds (which are found in some essential oils) and in medications such as aspirin or acetaminophen. Neither peppermint oil nor Virginia cedarwood oil contain these compounds. Contact your veterinarian for more information. Directions on how to use the collar: Take the collar out of the bag and unwind. Then pull on the small circular tab of plastic until that piece is completely removed from the collar itself and discard. A correct fitting will enable two fingers to be comfortably inserted between the collar and the neck of your dog or cat. Any excess length of the collar beyond the buckle should be cut off and disposed of. Size Information: Cats fits up to 13 in. Do not use on kittens under 4 months of age. Duration: Collar is effective for 3 months
