Q5: How should the Seresto® Collar fit on a cat?
Ans: Seresto® Collar should fit comfortably around the cat’s neck with enough room for two fingers to slide between the collar and neck. After fastening, trim the excess collar length, leaving about 2 cm beyond the buckle for safety.
Q6: Does the Seresto® Collar need to be removed at night?
Ans: No. Seresto® Collar is intended to be worn continuously for up to 8 months to maintain consistent flea and tick protection. Removing the collar frequently may reduce effectiveness because continuous contact supports the spread of active ingredients.
Q7: What should I do if my cat shows irritation from the collar?
Ans: If a cat develops irritation, excessive scratching, redness, or unusual behavior, remove the Seresto® Collar and consult a veterinarian. Monitoring the neck area during the first days of use is recommended, especially for sensitive cats.

Ans: Seresto® Collar is designed to be non-greasy and odorless. The controlled-release collar technology helps spread active ingredients across the skin and coat without leaving a noticeable oily residue, supporting comfortable long-term use for cats.
Q9: Can the Seresto® Collar get wet?
Ans: Seresto® Collar is water-resistant, and normal exposure to small amounts of water may not significantly affect performance. However, frequent bathing or heavy water exposure may reduce the full 8-month duration of effectiveness in some cases.
Q10: Can the Seresto® Collar be used with other flea and tick products?
Ans: Consult a veterinarian before combining Seresto® Collar with other flea or tick treatments. Using multiple parasite control products at the same time may increase the risk of side effects or unnecessary exposure to additional active ingredients.
