aye loyds have it makes sense to get the bottle,i plan to buy that next time.moneys abit tight this week lol.i got the otom tick remover and got a single spot of of treatment from the vet called advocate£12 for both.in the end the tick was actully easy enough to remove,atleast shes sorted now.

lol mate,is that the right stuff in the link?i see no bottles..

just found a tick inbetween my jills toes,i would have tryed to remove this myself but this one looks like it could be a gotta be one of the most achward places to remove one. edit:decided to try i see yous mostly use frontline,i was told to use advocate(£26 at vets) i think it was by the wumin answering the phones at vets. anyway just to be sure,will this be ok http://www.petsathome.com/shop/frontline-spot-on-flea-drops-for-cats-and-kittens-15635 dont think they do the tick puller though

-
i thought id take the hob out today since the jills have been getting all the action latly,maybe this was a bad idea... the big man just didnt look interested in working,he would stroll about sniffing the nets(maybe smells the jills) looking bored as fook,i kept thinking thats it ya lazy wee fooker home it is,each time i wraped the nets up and thought about packing up i thought fook it,maybe this time....and after 6-7 hours and about -100 holes neted,and about half a tone of weeds lifted lol we ended up with 1 small rabbit,and we wouldnt have got that if i never stuck my hand in and gra
