Cats have the natural ability to hunt, fight, and play in the most flea infested places. Fleas can be found under houses or in abandoned structures where they are waiting. These parasites just ride along with you to your home, multiplying as they go. Dog and cat health can be compromised by fleas and protecting them is vital in the relentless battle against the parasites.
