Fleas are tiny, parasitic pests that infest animals and humans, feeding on blood and potentially spreading diseases through their bites.
Fleas are very small insects that live on warm-blooded animals (like cats) and feed off of their blood. They prefer to live on their host's body rather than in their nests. These little bugs will leave red-brown spots in cats' fur where they have been feeding. Fleas are usually first seen as small moving specks or black dots on a pet's skin or coat. If you think your pet has fleas, take a close look at its coat—fleas can be hard to see with the naked eye.
Fleas can cause anemia in cats if they feed for long periods of time, so it is important to get rid of them as soon as possible. Cats' immune systems are not strong enough to battle off a serious infestation of fleas alone.
