damn you'd ditch 2 of your pets just because you found some ticks?

Some shit is being talked in here lol. Any animal walking around outside might catch ticks, like some people pointed out there's ways to protect your cat/dog, although none is 100% safe. It's normal, getting rid of the pets would be overreacting insanely, it's nothing to do with hygiene or strange behavior. Also, ticks don't hide in your bed, they only live in high grass and rarely in the woods, not in people's apartments, on the streets or in the subway. The only way to get a tick bite is to walk around out in the green.

Also, they might not transmit diseases where you live, and if they don't, they're only annoying but not any dangerous. Maybe you wanna learn about that.

Kill got the knowledge for real

what country are u in and or what state....?

also if the tick just fell off by itself it probably was there for a long ass time to get that big! (full of Blood) hope u killed it was probably ready to lay eggs if it didn't already

First off: This is a tick. They're weird and potentially dangerous spider-like creatures who crawl around mammal's skins (including humans) and once they're in a position they consider cozy enough, they bite and start sucking blood. This tick, being blown up like that, has actually had time to suck quite a lot of blood, the fact it fell off by itself actually means it had a lot. Otherwise it wouldn't be blown up like that. You should be careful pulling ticks out of skin (read up on that), because if you do it wrong, part of the damn thing could remain in there (like the head) and that would make it even more difficult to get the whole thing out.

Also, I don't know about cats, but I can tell you that ticks can transmit diseases, viral meningitis worst case. It depends on where you live though, in some areas they can, in some not (kinda like mosquitoes and malaria). If a tick bites you, get it out as quickly as possible. If you do get ill within a certain time span, see a doctor.

...and there's nothing wrong with your cat. Ticks mainly lurk in high grass, and if your cat gets close, they might just opt to jump on it. You can wash it 50 times a day, soon as it leaves the house, it can happen.

That's about what I can tell you.

he know's what's up
