uh-oh! heartgard tablets are being discontinued. the generics "tri-heart plus" has pork-based flavoring in it, and revolution has been reported to have deleterious side effects

What? Noooo. That bites. :( I'd ask your vet what s/he recommends now for food allergic animals.
What are the Revolution side effects you've heard about? The only thing bad I've heard about it is that due to potential misapplication it can have increased risk of breakthrough infections and the flea preventative in it isn't as good as Frontline Plus, but that's it. (It's what I use for my cats, so I have a personal concern. :))
If you have dogs, Proheart 6 was reintroduced back into the market a while back, but that comes with its own blend of potential nasty side effects!

Advantage Multi is a topical heartworm treatment. It also treats fleas, ticks, and worms (except for tapes).
