Have you had a cat get Lyme or a related disease (erlichiosis, for example) from an embedded and engorged female deer tick?
Do I look for the standard symptoms of malaise..lethargy, loss of appetite, change in litter box habits, limping? Are the odds against this happening? I use Frontline monthly but have spotted a lot of ticks recently crawling around M’s fur.The literature makes it seem unlikely. But you know me..Ms. Worry-Wart about Himself.
