Applying Revolution Plus to your cat can be challenging if your kitty squirms, but ensuring the medication is applied correctly is important for its effectiveness.
- Ensure your cat is calm and relaxed before starting.
- Apply the treatment at the base of the skull where your cat can't lick it.
- Use treats or a favorite toy to distract your cat during application.
When applying Revolution Plus, it's crucial to have your cat in a stable, secure position. You might try wrapping her gently in a towel to help keep her still. Gently part the fur at the base of the skull so the product is applied directly to the skin. This location is ideal because your cat won't be able to reach and lick it off. Offering a treat or using a toy can also help turn this into a more positive experience.
