Fleas???

Hello.

Sorry for being MIA.  Momma has been really busy with her work.  She has some free time today so I took advantage of it and motioned her to help me blog.

Anyhoo, I was rushed to the hell house (again) because Momma panicked when she noticed several little lumps in my arms.  The vet said that there's nothing to worry about because those lumps were just flea bites.

Momma:  Flea bites??? How did that happen?  We always make sure our house is clean and Sushi gets her bath every week. Does she have fleas?

Vet:  No, she doesn't have fleas.  Do you have dogs or cats within your vicinity? 

Momma:  Cats, no.  Dogs, yeah.  Our next door neighbor has a dog.  There's another one at the far end on the other side.  

Vet: Okay, so that's where Sushi got those bites.  Fleas jump from one pet to another easily. And we're not sure if their humans give their pets bath and medication as often as they should.

Thank Cod, I don't have fleas!  But those bites sure were itchy.

Hope you'll stop by and meet us sometime. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at www.TheCatOnMyHead.com, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette.

  27. We got fleas from the dog next door 2 years ago. We are inside cats and they came through the walls! Just be careful and keep an eye open so it doesn't become an infestation. Our mom put drops on us for a couple months to be sure.

  28. I have been pretty lucky the past several years--I'm an only kitty and I stay indoors, so usually I don't get fleas, though sometimes they can come in on the Human's shoes, etc.--ick ick ick!!! Still, the Advantage stuff works if you really need it. XOXOXOXO
