Are cats susceptible to bed bugs?

Answer 1

Not really! It is remotely possible but highly unlikely a cat would ever carry a bedbug. Bedbugs are attracted towards the breath of humans when they are asleep not to cats and they make their hiding place close to where the human sleeps not where a cat sleeps. Bedbugs live on human blood not animal blood. In the extremely unlikely event of a bedbug finding a hiding place on a cat, such as under its collar, it will almost certainly leave that hiding place rapidly and find a better hiding place as soon as the cat wakes up and moves.

Answer 2

Bedbugs are so tiny, most of them measuring less than 1/10 of a millimeter.

They are much to small to be visible by a cats eye, not to mention a human eye.

I am sure cats eat bedbugs though, they just do not know it. By licking or chewing on a piece of bed-cloth, they probably eat many of them.

Humans do the same.

Answer 3

yes and so are dogs and other animals so watch out

Answer 4

No. Bedbugs are attracted to the beds of humans. Because they feed on human blood not cat's blood they are never likely to be spread by a cat.

Answer 5

Yes because cats have only for over there skin, just like human hair

Answer 6

Answer 7

yes anything that has blood in it can get bites

Answer 8

Yes
