The Ultimate Protection for Puppies and Kittens
Welcoming a new furry friend into your home is a joy, but it also comes with the responsibility of protecting them from invisible threats. Revolution is a broad-spectrum endectocide that offers a comprehensive shield for young pets. Whether you have a playful puppy or a curious kitten, starting them on a Revolution regimen ensures they grow up without the burden of parasites.
As a pet parent, you want a product that is both powerful and gentle. Revolution contains Selamectin, a semi-synthetic compound that targets a wide range of invertebrate parasites by disrupting their nervous systems, leading to paralysis and death for the pests—while remaining safe for your pet.

Why Revolution is the Essential Choice for Pet Parents
When it comes to the health of your newest family members, “good enough” isn’t enough. Revolution stands out because it simplifies your life. Instead of juggling multiple pills and messy sprays, this single monthly spot-on covers almost everything.
By choosing Revolution, you are investing in a product that has been rigorously safety-tested in over 100 breeds of dogs and 15 breeds of cats. It is specifically formulated to be used on puppies and kittens as young as six weeks old, providing a foundation of health from the very beginning.
Key Benefits of the Selamectin Formula
1. Comprehensive Flea Control
Revolution doesn’t just kill adult fleas; it stops the next generation. Its ovicidal and larvicidal action prevents flea eggs from hatching, effectively breaking the flea life cycle in your home environment.
2. Heartworm Prevention
Heartworm is a silent killer. Revolution prevents heartworm disease by controlling the microfilaria of Dirofilaria immitis. A monthly dose is all it takes to keep your pet’s heart healthy.
3. Treatment of Intestinal Worms
Young pets are highly susceptible to worms. This formula treats and controls Hookworms (Ancylostoma tubaeforme) and Roundworms (Toxocara cati) in cats, as well as Roundworms (Toxocara canis) in dogs.
4. Ear Mite and Mange Relief
Ear mites are a common and itchy nuisance for kittens and puppies. Revolution clears up ear mite infestations quickly and is also indicated for the treatment of sarcoptic mange in dogs.
How to Apply Revolution Safely
Applying Revolution is quick and stress-free. The pink-coded tubes are specifically measured for animals up to 2.5kg.
-
Prepare: Remove the tube from its protective package. Hold it upright and press the cap down until you hear a click, indicating the seal is broken.
-
Position: Part the hair on the back of the neck at the base, in front of the shoulder blades, until the skin is visible.
-
Apply: Place the tip of the tube against the skin and squeeze it 3–4 times to empty the entire contents in one spot.
-
Wait: Avoid bathing your pet for 2 hours. After that, the formula is completely water-fast!
Safety Profile and Breed Compatibility
Safety is the cornerstone of the Revolution brand. It has been tested safe in pregnant and lactating females, breeding males, and even avermectin-sensitive Collies. In clinical studies, puppies as young as six weeks were given ten times the recommended dose with no adverse effects.
However, it is vital to remember that Revolution should not be used on animals that are sick, debilitated, or significantly underweight. For more detailed clinical data on parasite prevalence, you can refer to the Companion Animal Parasite Council (CAPC) guidelines.

Yes! Revolution is safe for over 100 dog breeds. If you have other pets, you can explore our Full Pet Care Category to find the right size for older or larger animals.
Can I use the cat version on my puppy?
While both contain Selamectin, you should always use the specific “Puppy and Kitten” pink box for animals under 2.5kg to ensure the concentration (60mg/ml) is exactly right for their weight.
