After the fleas are eliminated, you might want to ask your vet about testing/treating for tapeworms. Cats can get tapeworms from ingesting fleas when they groom themselves.
I don't disagree that ticks can be attached and not yet attached, but I don't want to confuse the op about what this insect is and how to treat it. Not all flea medicines treat ticks, but that is not a tick in the video, so a flea only treatment would suffice.
If your cat has been on flea medicine, I would try a different one. Fleas can develop immunity to different poisons. Where I live the Comfortis pill is effective, but Frontline is not. The flea in the video looks like it might be dying, which is maybe why it didn't escape while you were...
Maybe try a pellet litter, either pine or paper. That should eliminate a puddle as he pees, and pellets won’t stick to his fur like clumping litter can
I found them at my local pet store for $2.50. I got the chicken pate one, and it went over pretty well with my two cats, even my very picky kitten Amira. I'm going to get the other flavors and see if they continue to like it.
Ash is the minerals in the food, it shouldn’t be 0%.
I also have a picky cat now. I wish you luck in finding a food that meets your criteria, and is accepted by Wilbur.
If bacteria in raw worries you, you could get a brand of pre made raw that uses high pressure processed meat. I think that is...

That looks delicious. Don't be worried about eating beans or corn by themselves though, you'll still get all the essential amino acids. It's a myth that plant proteins need to be combined to be "complete". :)
I remember reading on here from someone that was dieting their cat, that they added plain unflavored gelatin to the food to add bulk without many calories. I think they made the gelatin up with water, then mixed some into the food. Or maybe you could set the food into the gelatin like those...
