Lmfao trust me if I could afford it I would.. I’ll probably still end up with some more during kitten season 🥹 It’s 240€ a month for flea and tick treatment for the 16 I have and 48€ a month for dewormer alone 🫠

€15/month/cat on flea and tick? That seems expensive?

Strong hold plus is what the treatment is! And it is expensive when you have 16 cats, but there’s a lot of ticks so it’s not something I can skip out on.

Interesting.

In the UK, I can purchase this easily for 6x pippetes for £27.49 ~= €30.79 = €5.17/month/cat, or €82.67 for 16 cats.

A Dutch website suggests the RRP for 6 pippetes is around €39. You should shop around a bit, or reach out to different vets.

There aren’t many vets here. BUT I bet it is cheaper in the Uk, a lot of returning tourist will bring care packages of things from the UK because it’s more affordable than purchasing here. I’ve always chalked that up to it being an island. Even electronics like iPhone 16 and I bought it for like €980 were in Canada would’ve been like 1300 cad.

Is it a full time job cleaning the liter box?

[–] Whitecat@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

It is.. but they also go outside too so I think it could be worse. There’s eight litter boxes around the house inside and then one giant litter box outside 😂
