Domestic pet cats should be dewormed as soon as the owner accepts the cat to kill external parasites in time to ensure the health of the cat and the health of the family, and avoid cross-infection with other cats. Especially for stray cats and free-range cats that have just entered the home, deworming the cats is a must. There are two methods of deworming: internal and external. Let’s talk about the specific methods of external deworming.

Drops—how to use

The first step is to use drops and sprays differently. First, drop them into the position between the shoulder blades on the back of the cat's neck, push aside the fur here to expose the skin, and then put the drops directly on the skin.

Step 2: Don’t let go immediately after applying the drops, because the drops penetrate into the sebaceous glands and act on the whole body to eliminate insects. Just dropping them on the hair will have no effect. You should keep pushing the coat aside to allow the solution to slowly penetrate into the skin. Then close the coat to cover the area where the medicine is applied.

Step 3: Do not drop drops all over the body. Apply the same method to several points on the cat’s back along the spine. These parts cannot be licked and will not cause safety hazards.

Note: There is no need to massage the medication area, and do not apply the medication to damaged skin. Do not bathe your cat within 72 hours before and after use.

Spray—how to use

Grab the nape of the neck and spray the whole body, don't forget the face and tail. To avoid spraying the agent directly on the face, spray the spray on a soft cloth first, and then gently apply it on the cat's face. If your cat is wearing a collar, make sure the skin under the collar is also sprayed with the agent.
