Heartworm and flea/tick prevention is not “one size fits all” — and using the wrong product or wrong dose can be dangerous, even fatal.

Every preventative is designed for a specific species, weight range, and purpose. A product made for dogs should NEVER be given to cats, and even using the wrong dose for your pet’s weight can lead to serious health complications or make the prevention ineffective.

Skipping prevention may seem harmless until you’re facing heartworm disease, flea infestations, tick-borne illness, anemia, skin infections, or costly emergency treatment that could have been prevented. Heartworm disease alone can be life-threatening and is far easier (and safer) to prevent than to treat.

Please:
🐾 Use preventatives prescribed or approved for YOUR pet
🐾 Keep your pet’s weight updated for accurate dosing
🐾 Never split medications unless instructed by a veterinarian
🐾 Never assume products are interchangeable between cats and dogs
🐾 Stay consistent with monthly prevention

Prevention is part of responsible pet ownership, and using the correct product correctly matters just as much as giving it at all. Your pets depend on you to keep them safe. ❤️
