If your cat is bitten by a tick it could be fatal, ticks can live up to several years attached to your cat feeding on its blood (ew, too gory!) and you may not even notice them until they have fed on your cat so much that they become engorged (meaning filled to excess with blood). Ticks can also pass on diseases to your cat that can cause serious health issues and they could also pass on diseases to you and your family.

Yes, a tick can potentially cause a cat to vomit, although it's not a common reaction. The presence of ticks can lead to various health issues in cats, including infections or allergic reactions, which may result in gastrointestinal upset.

If a cat shows signs of vomiting or other health concerns related to ticks, it's best to consult a veterinarian.

First of all . . . never pull on a tick that is attached to an animal's skin. It can break off and leave the tick's head under the skin. If that happens, then there is a high risk of infection. A veterinarian should removed the remainder of the tick, and apply and antibiotic. He/She may decide to put the cat on a course of antibiotic tablets.
