im not sure if this is where i should post this but i have to ask. I have a kitten who is gray and white. Every once in a while (maybe once every three days) i see what looks like a small grain of rice crawling on his belly or on his back leg and when i try to pull it off of him it crawls away and i cant find it. To me it looks like a tan color. Is it possible that it is lice? I really dont think it is a flea due to the color. If it were to be lice would there just be one or two. I have checked all thru his fur and i cant see anything. What could this be??? I consulted the vet but they said lice in cats is very rare..i looked on the internet and it said the same thing...it is rare (one vet said he has seen one case in his 25 years of being a vet). What should i do. and if it were lice do you think there would be more than one or two crawling on him.
