Question by mirestellanyc:
Do bedbugs bite animals?

Much to my annoyance, I found a bedbug on my couch. My cat was happily curled up on the next cushion. I was wondering if bedbugs are attracted to animals or are they turned off by the fur? The cat does not seem to be scratching at all, at least not yet…

I think they would be attracted to whatever warm-blooded thing was nearest to them, be it animal or human!
