S3 B3 7 | Why Cat Spot-On Medication Must Be Applied Only on the Back

Have you ever wondered if spot-on flea medication for cats can be applied somewhere other than the back of the neck? The clear answer is no. These medications are specifically designed to be absorbed through the skin at the back of the neck, an area your cat can’t reach to lick. This location ensures the medicine works effectively and safely without the risk of the cat ingesting it.

If a cat manages to lick the medication off its fur, it could cause irritation or even an allergic reaction. That’s why it’s essential to apply these treatments precisely behind the head and keep your cat away from others who might lick them. A little care during application can protect your cat and keep flea problems away. Try applying this tip and follow us at Pau & Sun for more helpful pet advice!
