Cats are one of mankind's favorite pets. They are cute, independent and intelligent. One thing that bothers people, however, is that cats often have a lot of fleas. Why do cats have so many fleas? This is a question worth exploring.

In the first place, we need to understand how fleas live. Fleas are parasites that feed on the blood of cats. Fleas have flat bodies and strong hind legs that can jump great distances. Their life cycle is short, just a few months, but each flea can lay hundreds of eggs. The eggs fall into the hair on the cat's body and hatch into larvae and eventually into adult worms. Fleas reproduce very quickly, so once a cat has fleas on it, it will soon become all over it.

So why are cats prone to fleas? There are many reasons. First, cats have thick hair, which provides an ideal environment for fleas to breed. Flea eggs can easily attach to cat hair, and the hair can protect the eggs from the outside environment. Secondly, cats like to be outdoors and have easy access to the source of fleas. Fleas usually live in grass, bushes and other places, and when the cat walks in these places, the fleas will jump on the cat. In addition, the cat's body is warm, and it is also a favorable environment for fleas. Fleas need a warm environment to survive and breed, and a cat's body temperature is just right for their needs.

In brief, there are many fleas on the cat because of the life habits of fleas and the life habits of cats. Factors such as a cat's thick hair, love of outdoor activities, and physical warmth provide an ideal environment for fleas to breed. In order to protect the health of cats and reduce the breeding of fleas, cat owners need to regularly dewormer their cats and maintain a hygienic environment for their cats. Only in this way can we keep our cats free from fleas.
