Supporting Cat Health with Information and Health Studies.
Vaccinations are a fundamentally essential component of cat care and help prevent serious, even potentially fatal diseases. The rabies vaccine is the only vaccination currently required by law in most states, but we strongly recommend fostering good cat health by making sure your feline friend completes his or her recommended vaccination protocol on time.
CVM recommends departments, centers, and Institutes make routine health checks part of their wellness visits for seniors pets and those with common smaller problems that can be dealt with at home. Supporting cat health means getting information about how to keep cats healthy. There are many ways to get this information, including online resources and health studies.

How Do Cats Get Fleas or Ticks?
Cats are very clean animals. They have fur to protect them from the elements and a very effective grooming process to keep them clean. Fleas and ticks can be transferred to humans through their fur or feathers. Cats can get fleas or ticks from outdoor exposure. Fleas and ticks can easily attach themselves to cats, but indoor cats are less likely to get these pests.
Fleas and ticks can infest indoor pets if they are brought inside by another pet or a human.
What Should You Do if Your Cat Has Fleas or Ticks?
If your cat has fleas or ticks, you will want to keep the cat inside and away from the yard. You can also use a flea and tick shampoo to help treat your cat. You can also use a flea collar to help prevent fleas. Fleas can be quite a problem and can make your cat sick. If you are worried about fleas, you will want to check your cat frequently for fleas and ticks. You can also use a flea. Failure to treat them can lead to infection.
Flea treatments are available in stores, online, or through your vet’s office. Don’t give your cat a flea treatment meant for a dog or another animal – these medications aren’t intended for felines and can be harmful. If your cat has a tick or had a tick, call the vet’s office for advice on the next steps to take.
Flea and tick control is important to help protect your cat from disease. There are a number of different products available to treat fleas and ticks, and you can choose the right treatment for your cat. You should check your cat regularly for signs of infection, such as red irritated skin, loss of appetite or weight loss, or discharge from the nose or ears.
If you notice any sign of illness in your cat, please consult a veterinarian immediately.
