Regular flea prevention will help protect your cat’s health and well-being, as well as helping to protect your home. A flea infestation can mean misery for your cat. It’s not just the irritation and itchiness from flea bites that cats have to contend with. In fact, fleas can lead to serious health conditions. An allergy to flea saliva can cause flea allergy dermatitis in cats, which means just a few flea bites trigger severe itching and sore skin. Infected fleas can even transmit diseases when they bite. They can also lead to your cat developing a tapeworm infection if a cat were to ingest an infected flea (which can happen during grooming). And because fleas feed on blood, a severe infestation may even lead to anaemia.
