Where should I check a cat for ticks?
Check around the head, ears, eyelids, neck and collar area, then feel carefully over the whole body, including armpits, groin, legs, paws and tail base.

Key takeaways
Start where ticks are easily missed
Use gentle handling and stop if the cat becomes distressed. A torch and fine comb can help inspection, but a comb does not reliably remove an attached tick.
Protect the cat and handler
Do not wrestle with a frightened cat or probe near an eye. A veterinary team can remove difficult ticks and recommend cat-safe ongoing prevention.
