How to Choose a Quality Flea Collar for Your Cat: Look at the Packaging – It Will Say It All

09.10.2024 17:48

A flea and tick collar for cats is an effective remedy, but only if you choose a quality product that is suitable for your pet.

Therefore, when purchasing a product, you should pay attention to the features from the list below.

Package

Your choice should be a product packed in a foil package. A collar in other packaging, according to experts, simply cannot protect the animal from fleas.

Purpose

It is worth buying a product designed for cats (not for dogs or anyone else). When choosing a collar, consider the characteristics of the animal: there are separate "accessories" for kittens, pregnant or nursing cats.

Best before date

A collar that has been lying around for a long time may not only fail to help your cat get rid of fleas, but may also harm its health.

Compound

The collar should not contain substances such as amitraz, permethrin, or organic phosphates.

Since the modern market is full of both worthy products and their low-quality fakes, do not chase a good price: low cost cannot but affect the quality of the product.
