No it's absolutely not right at all!! Kittens can have Frontline spray applied from 2 days of age. So there is absolutely no reason why these kittens should have fleas  |

hiya no i thought so, i may not be up to date and know lots about cats but i like to think i know the 'basics' it had 3 fleas on it, i was so shocked i stood there debating whether to speak up, then i said it he she was like oh its normal......to young....... so i put it down & picked up another & it had the same thing i knew it wasnt good. didnt buy one though!! said no there & then! |

Well done for waling away  Trouble is that young kittens with a heavy flea burden can become seriously ill and even die  If they have fleas then most likely they will have worms too and I guess the breeder thinks they are too young to worm also |

hiya ive found one already, But this was for a littler of bengals (before i knew how much work was invold with them) mum was gccf but dad wasnt she had lots & lots to sell as she was moving abroad, other cats aswell. ive found a siamese that i am getting now, i havent got lots of money because i am not well and cant work so have to go further out or get a cross, would love a birman though, still looking to see if there are any nice breeders who are willing to lower there prices *fingers crossed* |

friend just went to look at 3 week old kittens - all had fleas (mother was a stray) His vet said can't treat for fleas but treated mother and gave spray for room. Are you sure about the frontline? Should I tell him? CM |
