About Bravecto Spot-On for Cats
Bravecto Spot-On for Cats — 3 Months of Flea & Tick Protection Without a Prescription
Bravecto Spot-On for cats delivers long-lasting flea and tick protection from a single topical application — up to 3 months per dose, far longer than typical monthly treatments. It also treats and controls ear mites. Powered by fluralaner, it's the straightforward choice for cats that need reliable, long-lasting flea and tick control. At Smartway Pet Supplies, you can buy genuine MSD Animal Health (Merck) Bravecto for cats without a vet prescription, shipped to the USA and Canada.
What Bravecto Spot-On for Cats Protects Against
- Fleas — treats and prevents flea infestations for 3 months, killing fleas within 12 hours and stopping newly emerged fleas before they lay eggs. Helps break the flea life cycle and manage flea allergy dermatitis (FAD)
- Ticks — protects against ticks (including paralysis ticks) for up to 3 months
- Ear mites — treats and controls ear mite infestations
Bravecto Spot-On is also effective against fipronil-resistant strains of fleas.
Spot-On or Plus — Which Do You Need?
Bravecto Spot-On covers fleas, ticks, and ear mites. If your cat also needs heartworm prevention and intestinal worm treatment, choose Bravecto Plus for Cats instead, which adds those to the same flea, tick, and ear mite cover. Not sure? See our Bravecto for cats guide.
How It Works
The active ingredient, fluralaner, is an isoxazoline that targets the nervous system of fleas and ticks. Applied to the skin, it is absorbed and distributed in the tissue fluid just beneath the surface — when parasites feed, they ingest fluralaner and are killed, with protection maintained for months rather than days.
Why 3-Month Protection Matters
Monthly treatments leave room for lapses — a missed dose, a late refill, a forgotten application date. Bravecto's extended formula keeps your cat protected even when life gets busy, with just four treatments a year for continuous flea and tick coverage.
Bravecto Spot-On for Cats — Choose by Cat Weight
Bravecto Spot-On comes in three weight-based sizes. Always choose the tube that matches your cat's current body weight.
| Pack Colour | Cat Size | Weight Range |
|---|---|---|
| Green | Small Cats | 2.6 – 6.1 lbs (1.2 – 2.8 kg) |
| Blue | Medium Cats | 6.1 – 13.7 lbs (2.8 – 6.25 kg) |
| Purple | Large Cats | 13.7 – 27.5 lbs (6.25 – 12.5 kg) |
Never use dog Bravecto on a cat — the canine formulations use different concentrations and are not appropriate for felines.
How to Apply
- Twist the cap to break the seal (do not remove it).
- Part the fur at the base of the skull, between the shoulder blades, until the skin is visible — this prevents your cat from licking the site.
- Place the tip on the skin and squeeze to apply the full contents in one spot.
- Avoid bathing or swimming for 72 hours after application.
Apply one tube every 3 months for year-round flea and tick protection.
