Ask Your Veterinarian

Before administering Vectra for the first time, you should ask your veterinarian to demonstrate proper application technique.

Patented Applicator

Vectra products use a unique, patented applicator that features an elongated tip to make it easy to apply to a cat's skin through the hair coat. The rounded tip minimizes risk of skin abrasions. The contoured applicator is easy to use, eliminates spillage and splashing, and has been clinically tested to ensure accurate dosing. With the one-piece applicator, there is no need to use scissors to open or remove a cap, making application fast and efficient and, at the same time, minimizing the potential of a choking hazard.

How to Apply Vectra® Properly

1. Remove applicator from package.
   
2. The cat should be standing or in a comfortable position for easy application.
   
   
   
3. Holding the applicator upright, place thumb and index finger around the applicator tip under the large disk. With the other hand, grasp the stem of applicator tip above the small disk.
   
   
   
   
   
4. Press down firmly on small disk until both disks meet, piercing the seal.
   
   
   
   
   
5. Using the tip of the applicator, part the hair down to the level of the skin and slowly apply the product. Avoid superficial application to the cat's hair.
   
   
   
   
   
6. Apply the product in one spot on the back of the cat's neck, as shown in the diagram, squeezing until the tube is empty.
