How to put a flea collar on a cat?

Cats are known for their agility, grace and elegance. But when it comes to flea collars, they can become quite the feline drama queens. Trying to put a flea collar on your cat is like trying to solve an algebra problem while being chased by zombies very hard! In this guide, we will teach you what you need to know so that putting a flea collar on your cat will be as easy as chasing laser pointers.

First things first: What is a flea collar?

Before we proceed with our tutorial, let’s talk about what exactly is a flea collar. A flea collar is basically an adjustable band that sits around your cat’s neck and releases insecticide in order to prevent fleas from making themselves comfortable in his or her fur (-For lack of better playground). It works by releasing compounds that repel fleas, ticks and sometimes even mosquitoes (I mean life ain’t fair but have we no mercy?)

Step 1: Choose the right type of collar

There are many different types of flea collars available ; some work for up to eight months while others only last up three months (-Who likes such shorter vacations anyway?). Read the instructions carefully before purchasing one (this thing could kill people too); make sure it fits properly and won’t cause irritation or discomfort.

Step 2: Prepare yourself mentally

Putting something around your furry friend’s neck might seem traumatizing but believe us when we say he /she won’t hate you (probably just dislike) -no matter how much dramatic pushbacks they put-up ! You’ll want avoid nasty scratches by staying calm throughout the process (-I feel obliged)

Step 3: Have everything ready at hand

You don’t want half-finished tasks if Mr/Mrs kittie decides now isn’t time. Here are the items you will need to successfully put a flea collar on your cat:

  • Flea collar (duh!)
  • A pair of scissors, in case you need to cut off any excess length from the collar
  • A towel, just in case things get too heated up (It’s a crisis. You can’t escape cleaning jobs.)

Step 4: Get acquainted

Now it is time for some kitty bonding! Let your feline pal sniff around and analyze that new tool. Try placing it near his or her food bowl; cats always associate good experiences with meal times. This tactic can make them feel more comfortable and getting use to the smell.

Step 5: Wait for optimal time

You don’t want Mr/Mrs fur ball having bad day when you least expect . The perfect moment would be when they haven’t eaten much as possible and relaxing so take advantage when lazing out mixed with lack of attention because lot less counter force from that end!

Step 6: Put the damn thing on

The final step in this heroic journey -Putting on the collar itself ! Hold their head firmly while slipping one side under then holding through other hand, guide remaining portion around neck until snug tight(-A nonchalant Victory)

Conclusion:

In conclusion these sneaky insects have nothing against your furry loving companion anymore graced with repellent superhero powers wearing flea collars but during this process remind yourself how keeping yourself calm reflects onto these drama queens reducing stress expanding lifespan peace & love all around!!
