My inside cat got outside for who mows how long. I don't know yet if she could have fleas and I wanted to know if it was safe to use a flea and tick removal.

Yes of course you can give your pet cat Holly a flea preventative like Revolution or Advantage multi, but there is no tick preventative out there for cats at the present time. If you do decide to use another product on Holly make sure it is labeled safe for use in cats.
