🐾 Let’s Talk Lice! 🐾
Did you know dogs and cats can get lice too? These tiny parasites live on the skin and hair coat and can cause itching, scratching, dry/flaky skin, hair loss, and an unhealthy-looking coat. You may even be able to see the lice or their eggs (nits) attached to the hair—like in this photo! 🔍
The good news? Pet lice are species-specific. Canine and feline lice do not live or reproduce on humans, so you don’t have to worry about your pet giving you head lice. ❤️
