What is a "cat flea"?

A cat flea is a common ectoparasite that infests domestic cats and occasionally dogs. It is a small, wingless insect that feeds on the blood of its host, causing irritation, itching, and sometimes transmitting diseases.

Effective flea control measures, such as regular pet grooming, use of flea preventives, and maintaining a clean living environment, are essential for managing cat flea infestations and ensuring the health and comfort of pets.
