While grooming, cats eat fleas that may have infested their coat. This makes it difficult for the owner to ascertain the presence of fleas. You can determine whether your cat has fleas or not by using a fine comb on the coat and examining the comb for trapped fleas. Black and comma shaped flea excreta or flea-dirt can also prove the prevalence of fleas in a cat.

Fleas can be harmful for cats in various ways:

They carry larva of intestinal parasites that can infect your pet. Allergy to flea bites can induce itching and scratching. This causes many skin problems later.

Adult fleas feed on the blood of the host and can cause anemia in young cats.

Frontline is one of the best-known flea treatments for pets, but my cat, Cheetah, did not react well to the treatment.  The spot where it was administered behind his neck often developed a sore and the hair fell out.  I therefore prefer to use a natural option that does not harm my cat.  It will depend on your cat which treatment will be best.

• If your cat is willing to get a shampoo, then Defendex™ Flea Shampoo is a an excellent natural option.  Defendex™ Flea Shampoo is a proprietary homeopathic pet shampoo that helps to naturally eliminate skin parasites.  Defendex™ Flea Shampoo, instantly targets mange and scabies with powerful natural medicine, but that’s still gentle on your pet.

• If your cat does not like a shampoo (cheetah doesn’t!) then many people are also using Diatomaceous earth to sprinkle on their pet and the pet’s bedding to get rid of the fleas.

• If you want to use something to soothe the skin where your cat has been bitten by fleas, then  FleaDerm for Flea Bite Dermatitis is an excellent natural ointment to apply to your cat’s skin.
