first u need to find its head and then u need to twist and pull up. but make sure that the head is still in the body it can still suck blood even though the body is off

i know the best way. get petrolium jelly and rub the substance around the tick and on the ticks head. after2-4 days the tick will most likely fall off because the jelly will wont like the smelll and feel so it will fall off. check again to make sure the ticks head is not stuck in there so it doesnt hurt or itch the cat or give it infectoins. then wash the cat with water to remove the jelly.

Put the cat on a extinguished match to make the tick pull out. If you try to separate the two while they are alive, your tick will loose its head and that will infect the cat.
