The label on Advantage says to consult a veterinarian prior to use in pregnant cats. Typically, this means that insufficient studies have been performed to confirm the safety of this medication in pregnant cats. However, without examining Snot and performing further research, I cannot confirm the safety of this product if she is pregnant. However, Frontline Plus is labeled as being safe for use in pregnant cats. I hope this helps!
