What are safe, long-lasting flea and tick prevention options for cats?

Question

Loved the idea of 8- month flea collar for adult kittiy but one got it caught on his lower jaw & we had to cut it free. Are there other options for flea and tick prevention that last longer than 1 month? Thank you. Denise. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 2 years and 2 months old | 10 lbs

Hi there. You can get a topical product called Bravecto from your veterinarian, which lasts three months. Other than that, all of the currently available flea/tick products for cats need to be applied monthly.
