Flea and Tick Prevention for Cats Cat fleas and ticks are dangerous disease carriers that can make your cat's life miserable. Fleas can transmit tapeworms and cause an itchy allergic reaction, which can lead to scratching, hair loss and infection. Frontline uses fipronil to wipe out fleas and may control ticks. It is available in a dab-on formula or a spray. For flea control, it can be used every two months; for tick control, it should be administered once a month.
Making a Commitment to Preventive Care Parasites come in many forms; heartworms, intestinal parasites, fleas & ticks and mites can all infest your pet. They can wreak havoc on your pet's body and heartworm infection can be deadly. Because of this, all cats need regular exams and ongoing heartworm, intestinal parasite, tick removal, flea control and prevention programs. Discuss the options with your veterinarian. Your cat will give you a lifetime of loyalty, affection and love. Make sure he spends that time healthy and comfortable.
