Mandyvdburgt Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I found a bunch of these things moving on a blanket my cats sat on and put it on the microscope...this is what I saw...they are about 1-1.5mm long. Wonder what this could be and if there is something I need to do about it? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevim Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 They are likely to be flea larvae. http://www.pet-informed-veterinary-advice-online.com/flea-pictures.html Go to either a pet shop or vets for advice but you’ll need to buy products to treat both your cats and your home. Make sure you follow the instructions rigidly as fleas are incredibly resilient and difficult to rid. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your huge help! Make sure you buy a flea treatment for a CAT ! (it may sound stupid, but some dog flea treatments are highly toxic to cats) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
