There is a variety of flea and tick prevention options available for your cat. If you own a American Shorthair cat then your vet may have already talked with you about flea prevention methods for your cat. Talk to your vet to find out if your American Shorthair is a candidate for a flea collar. Flea collars are simple to use and last anywhere between 3 to 8 months. Your vet or local pet store associate can help you find a flea collar that’s right for your American Shorthair including what brand, size, and type of flea collar to buy. Don’t forget to ask if you should be using an additional flea preventative with the collar. In general, the flea collar releases a defense mechanism on the neck and shoulder area of your cat. This drives the fleas to the tail where they die. Consult with your veterinary clinic Ashburn, VA for more information.
