Argh! We Have Fleas!For the first time in almost four years I've found a flea on Amber  I was just sitting giving her a little check over as I like to do once a week for any wounds/scratches etc and there it was as bold as brass! I've gone into overdrive and treated Amber, Max and the entire house  I'm high on flea treatment fumes now!

I hate fleas. When we first got kado i used to comb him constanley and pick the all out. HE is the only one now that will let you comb him without attacking the comb. |

I went mad when Oli had fleas! If he sees the comb now he attacks it. I have given the poor boy a phobia because I combed him so much.  |

Fleas are actually a very serious problem. We just lost one of our babies Monday because of fleas. When fleas bite cats they can leave a parasite in the bloodstream that drains all the red blood cells. The parasite keeps going from red blood cell to red blood cell till the cat is dead. Our baby was only three years old. We have never had fleas in the house and cannot imagine where she got fleas. We have one house dog who is treated so he doesn't bring fleas in. Our cats are not allowed outside. But please don't think fleas aren't serious. Fleas kill! |
