Revolution Plus for Cats is an advanced parasitic treatment, targeting fleas, ticks, heartworms, ear mites, roundworms, and hookworms with a single monthly topical application. Safe for kittens as young as 8 weeks old and weighing at least 2.8 pounds, Revolution Plus provides broad-spectrum protection, ensuring your cat remains free from harmful parasites.

FAQs
How do I apply Revolution Plus?
Part the fur at the base of your cat’s neck and apply the entire contents of the tube directly to the skin, between the shoulder blades. Avoid the cat’s eyes and mouth.
My cat only lives indoors. Is parasite protection necessary?

Revolution Plus provides comprehensive protection against a variety of parasites, including fleas, ticks, ear mites, roundworms, hookworms, and heartworm disease, ensuring your indoor cat stays safe from these harmful pests
How long after applying Revolution Plus can I touch my cat?
After applying Revolution Plus, it is advisable to avoid touching your cat until the product has fully dried. This usually takes about 24 hours. During this time, keep your cat separated from other pets to prevent them from licking the application site. This ensures the product is fully absorbed and minimizes the risk of ingestion, which can cause adverse reactions like excessive drooling or vomiting due to its bitter taste

Store at room temperature (59°F to 86°F or 15°C to 30°C) in a dry place, away from sunlight, and out of reach of children and pets.
Is Revolution Plus waterproof?
Revolution Plus topical solution is waterproof within two hours of application, but it’s recommended to wait 24 hours before bathing your cat to ensure full effectiveness. Bathing your cat shortly before application may also reduce the product’s efficacy.
