Spread the animal's hair to release a small area of bare skin at the base of the neck, in front of the shoulder blades.
Then place the end of the tube directly on the exposed skin area, without performing any massage. Then strongly press the tube to empty it completely of its contents on the surface of the skin, in a single point of application. Avoid any contact of the product with your fingers.
DOSAGE STRONGHOLD PLUS Ticks & Chips 3 pipettes
The content of the pipette is applied to the cat's skin after spreading the hairs at the base of the neck, at the level of the shoulder blades. This small volume of liquid is absorbed by the skin and acts throughout the body of the animal. The dosage and the number of pipettes to be used depend on the weight of the animal being treated.
