Sarolaner is a parasiticide that belongs to the isoxazoline family. Fleas, ticks,\u00a0mites, and lice are all killed by Selamectin and Sarolaner. As a result, Revolution Plus provides dual-action protection against these parasites. These parasites have no chance of surviving. The Sarolaner provides Revolution Plus even more tick-killing power!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadavetexpress.com\/cat-supplies-heartworm-control-treatment-136.aspx?utm_source=intblog&amp;utm_medium=seo&amp;utm_campaign=Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus-for-Cats\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3894\" src=\"http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus.jpg\" alt=\"Revolution plus for Cats -Canadavetexpress\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus.jpg 900w, http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus-165x110.jpg 165w, http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus-370x247.jpg 370w, http:\/\/canadavetexpress.improvepetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Revolution-vs-Revolution-plus-780x520.jpg 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>What can an additional ingredient in Revolution Plus provide protection for cats?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Revolution Plus protects your cat against everything that Revolution does, plus three types of ticks for a full month, including black-legged ticks (also known as deer ticks), American dog ticks, and Gulf Coast ticks, thanks to the addition of Sarolaner.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>What do Revolution and Revolution Plus have in common for cats?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While Revolution Plus is an enhanced version of Revolution, it&#8217;s no surprise that both treatments are made by the same company, Zoetis.
