Revolution Plus: Broad-spectrum Parasite Protection for Cats
Every cat, indoor or outdoor, needs parasite protection. When your cat is exposed to various types of parasite infestations, an all-inclusive parasite treatment like Revolution Plus for cats can help you keep these nasty pests away. According to Zoetis, Revolution Plus is the most prescribed parasite preventive for cats. It protects cats against fleas, 4 types of ticks, heartworm disease, ear mites, hookworms, roundworms, and tapeworms (as a direct result of killing fleas).
Revolution Plus topical solution is quick-drying and non-greasy, and comes in a small volume for convenient use. This monthly treatment is suitable for cats and kittens aged 8 weeks and above, and weighing at least 2.8 pounds.
Revolution Plus coverage
You may start with your cat’s treatment with this 7-in-1 protection formula at any time of the year. Revolution Plus:
Kills adult fleas and prevents flea infestations
Treats and controls tick infestations caused by Lone Star ticks, Gulf Coast ticks, American dog ticks, and Black-legged ticks
Treats and controls ear mite infestations
Treats and controls roundworm and hookworm infections
Helps prevent flea tapeworm infections as a direct result of killing fleas
Prevents heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis
How does Revolution Plus work?
Revolution Plus for cats contains two active ingredients: Selamectin and sarolaner. Selamectin disrupts normal neurotransmission in parasites, causing paralysis and death in them. Selamectin targets fleas, flea eggs, ear mites, roundworms, hookworms and heartworms.
Sarolaner causes increased nerve stimulation and death in target parasites, like fleas, ticks and ear mites. Both these ingredients help prevent flea tapeworm infections at the source by killing vector fleas before transmission.

Seresto Collar for Cats: Long-lasting Flea and Tick Protection
Seresto Collar for Cats comes in handy when you are looking for a flea and tick treatment that lasts for a long time. Elanco states that this collar is stocked in over 8000 vet clinics and is widely recommended by veterinarians for the prevention of fleas and ticks in cats and kittens aged 10 weeks or older. Suitable for your fussy eater’s irritation-free treatment, Seresto is non-greasy and odorless. It considers your cat’s comfort and features a two-way release mechanism for stress-free fitting and breakaway safety. With a unique polymer matrix technology, it ensures your cat’s protection against fleas and ticks for 8 continuous months.
Seresto Cat Collar coverage
Seresto collar offers up to 8 months of protection against flea and tick infestations to cats and kittens. This easy-to-apply, wearable treatment:
Repels and kills fleas before they lay eggs, including:
Fleas which may cause Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD) or Flea Bite Hypersensitivity (FBH)
Fleas that may transmit bartonellosis, tapeworm infections, feline infectious anemia, and rickettsiosis
Repels and kills ticks, including:
Deer ticks, American dog ticks, brown dog ticks, and lone star ticks
Ticks that may transmit Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, cytauxzoonosis, ehrlichiosis, and babesiosis
How does the Seresto Collar for Cats work?
Seresto flea and tick collar for cats contains two active ingredients: Flumethrin and imidacloprid. The polymer matrix technology used in Seresto makes sure that both these ingredients are slowly and continuously released from the collar and stay present on the cat during the entire 8-month efficacy period.
The ingredients spread from the site of direct contact over the cat’s skin surface and kill fleas and ticks through contact, so parasites do not need to bite the cat to be affected. After 24 hours of application, new fleas are killed within 2 hours. After the initial 48 hours of application, new ticks are repelled and/or killed in as quickly as 6 hours.
