Usage

Keep product in original packaging until ready to use. Use scissors to cut the blister along the dotted line and pull away lid. Remove the applicator from the pack and hold upright and pull back the plunger slightly. Twist and pull off the cap. Part the hair on the midline of the neck, between the base of the skull and the shoulder blades until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the applicator on the skin and apply the entire contents directly onto the skin in one spot. The product should be applied to dry skin on an area where the cat cannot lick it off. If the weight of the cat requires a second application, apply the contents in the same manner as described above in the same location.
