When Feeding a Cat Brewer's Yeast for Fleas....

[NettleTea]

How long does it take before it shows results? Results being - less or no fleas on him. I am also mixing garlic and some DE in his food along with the Brewer's Yeast.

Careful giving cats garlic. Garlic contains onions and cats are highly sensitive to them. I have 2 cats and treat them with topical treatments (frontline twice a year instead of monthly and it works!) and my dogs get garlic.

I used brewers yeast for my cats and I just mixed it in their wet food it worked wonderful (and gave their coats more luster ) I think it was about 2 weeks when it was very noticeable. I personally would not use garlic or anything else on them just the yeast

Thank you both so much for the tip about the garlic. I had no ideal.

Chemical treatments are exactly what I am trying to avoid. I used to use Revolution on him the one other time he had a flea outbreak. I considered it this time, but I am just not comfortable with putting that type of stuff in his blood again.
Of course, I would have to think that twice a year is definitely much better than every month.
