Natural protection against parasites

Parasites live on the blood of other animals. Fleas, mites and ticks amongst others nest in the fur of cats. Once they are there, they can have a true feast. Parasites can pose a huge health risk to our beloved animals. cdVet offers a range of products to provide your cat with natural protection from the parasites.

A healthy and well-functioning organism is partly able to help itself. However, a flea infestation, for example, will not disappear on its own. On the contrary: the longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to successfully get rid of the parasites.

Rarely, but theoretically yes! Through shoes or objects brought in from outside. The risk is comparatively, but very low.

Parasites that nest in the fur and live off the blood of the host animals cause unpleasant itching. The affected animals scratch themselves noticeably often and are therefore often stressed and restless. In severe cases, worms can lead to diarrhea or even weight loss, as they can deprive the cat of important nutrients.

Theoretically, both worms and fleas can be transmitted to humans. However, worms need an intermediate host and transmission can be easily prevented by treating your pet hygienically.

Cats are particularly often attacked by ticks and fleas (externally) and worms (internally). Mites and lice, on the other hand, are not as common.
