Our veterinarian reveals why the payoff for your pet is well worth any extra work. Since cat's shoulderblades aren't attached like humans' are, it's extremely difficult to actually locate a midpoint between a cat's shoulders because every time they move, the midpoint shifts around, and what looks like the middle in one position is way off to the side in another position.

Joined Aug 4, Messages 2 Purraise 1. Thank you for your post. My husband and I just had the same thing happen to us. We totally missed the "correct spot" for applying Revolution. I wish they had an oral version of this stuff because I know it is poison.
I was tempted to put her E-collar back on from when she was spayed, so she doesn't keep licking the spot. I sure hope she is going to be OK. I do feel better after reading some of the posts here. Thank you all for your advice. Yep, been there, done that! It'll be okay and you'll figure it out. I used to do it between the shoulder blades or just a bit higher until I saw one of my kitties licking it.
Also, get the nose of the applicator on the skin, squeeze the tube, then sorta use the nose to "massage" the liquid into the skin in an area about the size of a nickel. Later on in the day, the fur will look like it dried with hair gel in it, so I always brush it out. I 2nd the need for oral combo meds like Revolution. My cat Oksana loses her mind at the mere mention of topical meds.
My cat is very small and limber. Anywhere she cannot reach to lick, she will lick her hind paw and get at the medicine that way. I find the only way to keep meds on her for more than a couple of hours is to use an e-collar. She doesn't like it but she doesn't like the meds either so, she has to deal. You guys are right also about trying to find the shoulder blades on a cat. I'm used to dogs and there is a clear center between their shoulders. I thought I was an idiot for not being able to find it.
A: Some dog products, mainly Permethrins, are toxic to cats. If this is caught quickly, within a few minutes of application and the cat is not showing any symptoms, you can bathe the entire cat in liquid dish soap up to three times back to back to remove the product and then call your veterinarian for further assistance. If the cat is showing symptoms such as tremoring or seizing, the cat should be immediately transferred to a veterinary facility for treatment. When faced with a potential toxicity situation, it is important to remember that there is help available.
Each flea product should have an emergency number on the package to call. While serious adverse reactions to a product are rare, they can occur to any dog or cat.
Before applying a flea product to your pet, consult with your veterinarian about potential side effects, dosing instructions and the best type of flea treatment right for you and your pet. You can also contact the company who makes the product for additional information. We hope you and your pet have a safe, flea-free year!
