The Chistotel brand produces cosmetics and products for protecting pets from parasites. The products are aimed at a wide range of consumers; they are characterized by affordable prices and a diverse assortment. Flea collars are available in several versions. However, the brand name itself is misleading and is associated with the use of medicinal herbs. Therefore, it is worthwhile to figure out whether a collar is issued from flea with celandine and what are the protective accessories of the Chistotel brand.
Celandine in the collar - true or fiction
Celandine grass has a number of useful properties and is widely used in folk medicine. It cleanses the skin of acne, warts, promotes wound healing. But the plant does not have any destructive or deterrent effect on parasites. Therefore, a flea collar with celandine for dogs and cats is not produced by any company. It is also worth considering that a medicinal plant, despite its healing power, is a poisonous herb.
Entrepreneurs took advantage of the confusion and new items appeared in some online stores, including a flea and tick collar for cats with celandine, drops on the withers with the extract. Do not be fooled and remember that certified protective accessories with the addition of celandine do not exist.
Feedback
A friend advised me to buy a bio-collar Chistotel for a cat. I remembered only the name of the grass and started looking for flea collars with celandine for cats in pet stores, I had no time to read reviews and therefore I persistently searched for such an accessory in veterinary pharmacies. It is good that in one of the shops the seller explained everything to me intelligibly. That's what it means to inattentively listen to the advice of friends.

Drug Reviews
Although my cat doesn’t leave the house, it only walks on the balcony, for the summer period I decided to protect it from insects. The priority was the deterrent quality of the product, so I bought a grass collar. The cat did not resist when they put on a strap and carried it all summer. For all the time no parasite was found.

I got a flea collar for my cat, as she and I walk for a long time on the street, and she likes to play with other pets. Therefore, the risk of infection with fleas is very high. The tool copes with the protective functions normally, but the fasteners leave much to be desired. Very often I had to go back and look for a lost collar, and putting it on a cat is not very convenient.

Having read laudatory reviews, I got a cat collar from fleas Chistotel. In the first three days, everything was fine, and then she noticed a strong reddening under the strap of a cat, resembling lichen in appearance. Now you have to go to the veterinarian to find out the causes of such a reaction on the skin.
