1. Spot-on to prevent ticks

If your cat keeps coming home with ticks, fleas, or other parasites, you should treat them regularly with a parasite preventative. A spot-on, for example, is applied to the neck, spreads from there to the entire cat, and prevents around four weeks of new nuisances from nesting in your cat's fur. Always read the package leaflet carefully before use and seek advice from your veterinarian if in doubt.

2. Particularly effective for a long time: clip for the collar

A clip for the collar has advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, it protects your pet from parasites for up to two years, is waterproof and does not unnecessarily pollute the body. The disadvantage is that cats can easily lose it, because for safety reasons they should only be let out with collars with a special safety lock that opens immediately if the cat gets stuck somewhere.

3. Reliable removal: the tick loop

If you find a tick in the fur of your house tiger, it is important that you remove it as soon as possible and without residue. A very popular tool for this is the tick loop. When you press a button, a fine noose comes out, with which you can easily remove ticks, no matter how big or small.

4. Spray with natural active ingredients against ticks

If you want to use a chemical-free alternative to repel ticks, you can find various options such as this spray in pet stores and online delivery. It should keep your parasites away from the parasites, especially with the help of essential oils, and are suitable for both prevention and elimination of ticks, fleas, mites, etc.
