Deveros Pet Collars - Natural Flea Repellant
People welcome pets into their homes for many different reasons. Some are looking for something to fill up time, others want added protection and some just want the easy companionship a pet offers them. It seems that no matter what their original intentions are in the beginning, every pet owner inevitably comes away with an additional member of their family rather than just a "pet" that takes up space in the home.
In our family our pets have always been considered part of our family and as such we treat them like we treat our human family members. We only want the best for them and this is reflected in the foods we buy, the treats we surprise them with and ensuring that they get to all of their checkups. If you're anything like me then you've even stood in the pet isles of your nearest pet store and poured over countless product labels, compared brands, etc. in the effort to make sure your pet gets only the best.
Unfortunately, even the best of intentions can sometimes do more harm than good. For example, take flea and tick collars/medications into consideration. Many people aren't even aware that the chemicals that go into these products are actually capable of doing more harm than good. Up until the last few years, I had no idea that the brands I know and love were chalk full of ingredients that had the potential to cause harm to our four legged family members but ever since I was made aware I've been doing my best to be more conscious and focus more on healthier options for our pets.
Many of my readers know that we're smack dab in the middle of our annual Holiday Gift Guide, so, when the opportunity arose to partner with the kickstarter company Deveros Protective Fashion Collars, I was all too happy to welcome them to our pets section. Not only are their line of pet collars (and bracelets/anklets for people!) fashionable but they also offer a natural solution to the flea and tick epidemic we battle every year.
Every year pet owners spend 8 billion dollars on products laden down with pesticides designed to kill these pesky critters but Deveros offers a natural solution that is both effective and won't harm your furbabies. Norman Strohdach, the founder of Deveros, created a collar made with natural Cedar wood oil that is effective against fleas, ticks, mosquito's and even spiders!
While partnering with Deveros I received several of their revolutionary collars for our pets. We received one each for our Blue Heeler, Luna, our little guy, Zeus and even one for our cat, Ollie. While the collars have worked wonderfully for them, the only complaint I've had is that the large collar we received for Luna was a little tight due to her having an abundance of fur around her neck but other than that we've loved them.
The kickstarter campaign offers a Protection Plan, otherwise known as the Pro-Plan, and is good for a whole 5 years. The 5 year plan includes 3 collars and the company will replace any broken, chipped, cracked or lost cedar pieces and will even re-impregnate fresh cedar oils to provide another season of relief from fleas, ticks, mosquito's and other biting insects.
Our pets health is every bit as important as our human loved ones. If you're super conscious of the ingredients that go into you pet products and have issues with fleas and ticks then I can't recommend this project enough.
