Cat Heartworm Preventives FAQs

Can indoor cats get heartworm disease?

Yes, even indoor cats are at risk because mosquitoes can enter homes and transmit heartworms. Using a monthly preventative like Revolution Plus or Advantage Multi helps protect against infection.

What are the signs of heartworm disease in cats?

Cats with heartworm disease may show coughing, labored breathing, lethargy, vomiting, or sudden collapse. Since symptoms can be subtle, preventing infection with Selarid or Centragard is crucial.

How often should I give my cat heartworm prevention?

Heartworm preventatives like Interceptor and Revolution should be given monthly, year-round, even in colder months, to provide continuous protection.

Can kittens use heartworm prevention?

Yes, kittens as young as 8 weeks old can use Selarid for Puppies & Kittens or Revolution for Kittens to prevent heartworms and flea infestations.

Is there a treatment for heartworm disease in cats?

Unlike dogs, there is no approved heartworm treatment for cats, so prevention is essential. Monthly use of Centragard or Advantage Multi helps protect cats from this potentially fatal disease.
