My indoor cat goes outside. What flea and tick prevention is best?

Question

Hello! I'm working on harness/leash training my cat so that he can go outside with supervision (we live in a very small apartment). We live in a fairly flea and tick free region, but is there any sort of preventative care that I can do to keep him from picking up those/similar bugs? Cat is about four years old, around 13 pounds. Thank you! Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 13 lbs

The most comprehensive protection you can get that is also the easiest to apply and has very, very few side effects would be Revolution. I highly recommend this. I will provide broad spectrum coverage for fleas, roundworms, hookworms, ear mites, scabies, etc. This will give you peace of mind. You can get this product easily by going to one of Petco's VETCO clinics inside their stores. Take Ford with you as the vet will need to see him. They do not charge an exam fee so all you will need to pay for is the product. Hope this helps.
