An All-in-One Flea & Worming product for cats provides comprehensive protection against fleas, ticks and most worms, providing prevention against a the most common pests and parasites for your cat.
Not all cats are enthusiastic about their routine parasite treatments, and it can be a struggle for owners to maintain regular protection. All-in-one parasite preventatives make this process less stressful for both owners and cats. As an added bonus, they are a very cost-effective option and easy to apply to use.
The parasites of concern for Australian cats are paralysis tick, fleas, intestinal worms and heartworm. It is important to protect indoor cats too! Although cats living indoors will greatly reduce their exposure to many parasites, humans and other pets who venture outside can bring in unwanted guests! Once fleas have made themselves at home, they can be extremely difficult to eradicate and can take up to three months to completely eliminate. If your cat is on flea prevention but they are still itchy, take a look at our article How to treat a cat with fleas. Intestinal worms are another unwelcomed parasitic visitor. They can cause a variety of symptoms in our cats, commonly vomiting and diarrhoea. Maintaining regular worming protection is essential for the health and well-being of our cats. It is important to note that most spot-on treatments will not cover tapeworm. For this, there is Profender for cats or worming tablets for cats.
Indoor cats can be susceptible to heartworm too. Thankfully, the rate of heartworm infection is much lower than dogs since they are not the preferred host. As with dogs, mosquitoes carry the heartworm larvae which can infect your cat. Unfortunately, there is no treatment for cats once infected with heartworm, only symptomatic management. For more information on heartworm prevention in cats, see Heartworm Facts.
Tick prevention for cats has come a long way in recent years. Now there are many safe and efficacious products to protect your cat from deadly paralysis tick. It is a common misconception that ticks are only active in warmer weather. Although there is definitely a seasonal pattern to tick cases, during winter our pets are still susceptible. For more information see our article Tick paralysis in dogs and cats.
Remember to always consult with a veterinarian before using any medication for your cat to ensure its suitability and safety for your specific pet.
