4.  Advocate is a monthly topical treatment that treats
fleas, intestinal worms – hookworms, roundworms, and

 The treatment is also very effective in preventing
heartworms (Dirofilaria immitis) in cats.
 Though heartworms are rare in cats, recently there
has been a growth in the number of heartworm cases.

6. Advocate has two very efficient ingredients Imidacloprid and
moxidectin. Moxidectin is an anthelmintic that terminates the
intestinal worms and microfilaria (young heartworms) by
inhibiting the nerve signal transmission causing paralysis and
death. Imidacloprid is an insecticide that belongs to the
family of neonicotinoids. It is a neurotoxin that blocks the
neurological transmission and causes the death of fleas.
Hence, the unique combination of these two ingredients
protects your cat from several parasites.
