Have you ever wondered if a flea collar would work for your Birman cat? Flea collars are just one of the options for treating your feline for fleas. Talk to your vet to find out if your Birman is a candidate for a flea collar. Flea collars are simple to use and last anywhere between 3 to 8 months. Your vet can help you find a flea collar that’s right for your cat including what brand, size, and type of flea collar to buy. Don’t forget to check if you can use the flea collar in addition to a prevention program. 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 and fall off. The latest flea collars now protect the cat’s entire body. For more details, call your vet Ellicott City, MD.
