Does my cat have a tick?
Just notice my cat has a small white blob on the back of its ear and was wondering if this is a tick? If it is how do I get it of and how do i kill it? Also how do you know if you have a tick on yourself is it sore or itch?
Thankyou for any help.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.the ticks ive seen are mostly black i think......although i think they might come in a sort of white tinges colour - bit like a broad bean.........you can pull them out with tweezers, although that can sometimes be risky as they are prone to leaving their claws in so-to-speak and this is bad. They dont leave their grip easily so the most effective way is to burn them with a lighter so that they drop their grip and then quickly pull them out (this could involve 2 or 3 people!). They basically suck blood so they usually leave a bloody sore afterwards. I think they do hurt. Best out than on tho! if you took it to a vet im sure theyd do it for you.
