what are ticks?

like, ticks on cats, i read this book once and one cat said to another,"how about get rid of the elders’ ticks?"

so what are ticks?

like, ticks on dogs,cats,people,etc,etc
o yeah, when i read that book, that cat that has been ordered was called cloudpaw, he also ran to the medicine cat called cinderpelt and asked for some herbs or berries or some kind of moss to get them off.

When my cat gets ticks what should I do?

My maincoon cat is an outdoor cat and spends almost every night outside, and he sleeps outside alot during the day. he will attack me if I don’t let him out lol. Sometimes I find ticks on him and I of course pop them and pull them out. Is this enough? Should I put medicine where the tick was? any advice appreciated. btw he is 12 years old

My horse is a total tick magnet, the other 2 horses in my barn never have ticks on them but i fing at least 1 a day on my baby :(
Is there some kind of tick medicine for horses? Im sooooo paranoid about lime dissease!! Also is it safe to use cat tick medicine on my horse? Im wondering because horses have thicker skin and are bigger than cats soo i dont think it would hurt him.
Please no rude comments like; you dont know what ur talking about blahblahblah….
i love my horse too death and have loved him for 3 1/2 years and dont want him getting lime dissease!!

thanks :)
thanks heevers!! i will…
im so desperate to get rid of those stupid ticks. and the problem is that he gets turned out in a field of tall grass, where ticks are :(
