Yes they can. My cat was just diagnosed with lymes and he is an indoor cat which I take outside sometimes on a leash. It started with him walking stiff like and now he is limping. Even if your cat is an indoor cat, it is worth testing your pet if they have any of the symptoms.

Yes, cats can get Lyme disease, but it is less common in them than in dogs or humans. Cats may not show any symptoms or may have mild, nonspecific signs such as lethargy, decreased appetite, or lameness. If you suspect your cat has Lyme disease, consult your veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.
