Profender Red is a spot-on allwormer for cats weighing 5–8kg. Applied once to the skin at the back of the neck, it treats intestinal worms without the need for tablets — a meaningful difference for cats that resist oral treatments. One application every three months is the recommended schedule for ongoing intestinal worm control.

The topical formula contains emodepside and praziquantel, which work together to treat and control roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms across multiple life stages — eggs, larvae, immature, and mature worms. It also treats and controls lungworm, which is less common in some regions but worth covering. The Red pack is specifically sized for cats in the 5–8kg range; using the correct weight bracket matters for safe and effective dosing.

The main draw is the format. Cats that put up a fight at tablet time — and there are many — tolerate a spot-on application with considerably less drama. Combined with the quarterly schedule, it's one of the more straightforward parasite management routines available for cats.
