My cat keeps on scratching. i think it might be carpet mites how do i get rid of them?
Answers:
get rid of the cat. there, your mites are gone.
Get rid of your carpet and put down a good quality wooden or laminate flooring. It may be expensive but it will rid you of carpet mites permanently and its easier to clean. So I guess its kind of like an investment for the well being of both your pet and you.
It might be that or it might simply be fleas. Go to your vets and ask them they will be able to tell you how to get rid of them.
Well if your cat keeps on scratching it probably is not even carpet mites its probably fleas and you might have to take it to the vet :)
sounds like your cat has fleas 2 me ! dont worry cats and dogs have fleas its just part of the package just buy some flea liller for your cat and for your home and your done ! well at least till he catches them again lol hope this helped elly
hI would say fleas buy a insecticidal powder or flea collar that should cure them .
you can also use a shampoo but be careful cats don't like showers
Don't worry Cats know the way to keep themselves clean. Its natural and inborn character of cats to keep themselves clean. So nothing is going to bother them.They sure know a way to get rid of Mites and I hope your cat is not going out in Sun. Show him a way out into the sun and the problem is solved.
Your cat could have fleas. They are very small & black you can see them if you push the hair back with you finger. If this is the case you can purchase a carpet insecticide it comes in powder form from Hartz, green container like rug deodorizer. Then give the cat a flea bath.
He/she may also have a skin infection you should have it checked by a vet just to be sure.
If your cat goes outside, at this time of year it could well be harvest mites. If it is use Drontal, a spray, obtainable from your vet, shouldl fix it. Some cats are allergic to harvest mites tho' and the spray gets rid of the mites but not the allergy. If after spraying the cat continues to scratch it will need an antibiotic injection from the vet
Hope this helps
Hi,
It's only fleas. don't panic.
Buy a flea comb, some flea shampoo, and pet flea dust.
1-2-3. The flea dust on your cats should also kill the carpet ones as well. and vacum regularly to keep them from comming back..
Good hunt. and Good Luck!
Go to the vet for medication. Could be allergies also. If mites, they'll also have the proper stuff to get rid of them off cats and also out of the carpet.
i would say fleas, or mites, or allergy,s spray your car[pet with that spray that is for the house for fleas and mites best answer take carpet out even new carpet has mites and all kinds of bugs in it
Get the cat checked at the vets to find the cause - could be anything from fleas to emotional stress. If it is fleas or mites they can easily be treated with stuff for both cat and house - good luck.
clean your house you dirty sods
nix on the carpet mites; its fleas. Get FRontline from your vet, and ask him for a big can of spray to do floors, drapes and soft furnishings- its no good getting rid on the fleas on the cats, and leaving them in the furniture! Good luck; it really does work!
clip his front paw nails, for sure he will stop it.
