== == Some of my cats get ticks. I usually find them on my long-haired gray cat before they attach themselves to the cat. I have never seen them on my short-haired gray cat though. I've wondered about that. I suppose it's possible that some cats have less of an attraction to ticks than others. It is probably some difference in their blood--don't you think? The ticks love my two long-haired cats, while they seem to have less interest in my two short-haired cats. That is not true with the fleas! The fleas love them all equally well! ---- Cats, as a general rule, who live indoors whether long haired or short do not get ticks. That is not because of physiology, it is simply because of the lack of ticks in most homes! Now as to cats who live outdoors or go outdoors. Short haired cats such as the bengal, almost never get ticks. This is because of the fact ticks prefer to bury themselves which they are unable to do with short haired cats. It is also due to the fact that all breeds of cats are extreme cleaners and lick themselves constantly. As soon as a tick begins to move, the cat will be drawn to the movement and will either eat the tick or chew it drop it. If a tick was able to latch, the short haired cats will within a short time remove it, hence the fact ticks are seldom seen are a short haired cat. Long haired cats on the other hand struggle with the same tick issues as dogs. Due to the length and thickness of their hair, they are sometimes unable to locate or feel the tick and it will latch. But at the same time, these cats will not suffer from excessive ticks due to their constant cleaning. It is seldom to find a tick on any cat on easily reached areas such as the stomach, back, rectum, genetalia, etc as they will despose of the tick the moment they locate it. Regardless of what type of animal you have or breed, it is the humane and safe practice to keep your animal on a anti flea and tick medication. Ticks and fleas are not only uncomfortable to your animal, they can also cause illness or even death. Fleas are the leading cause of heartworms and ticks can carry multiple diseases that can cause permanent injury to your animal or even death! Consult with your local vet as to what is the best anti flea and tick regiment for your animal!!
