Fleas!
Hello cat lovers! Pookie adopted me almost two years ago; somebody dropped a litter of kittens in a box off in our small community, and she made it through several fences and a closed-in porch to my place. She picked the right place. This is the first summer I have noticed that she is having a very definite problem with fleas, amnd I am not even certain where she is getting them. She is strictly a house cat, although a have a screened-in porch that she goes on. I have tried everything - a flea collar (doesn't do a thing) Frontline (seems to be water) and last week, the groomer put a stronger lotion on her - supposed to last a month. She is covered with fleas and very unhappy. So am I. I have taken her to the groomer several times for a bath, and that is the only time she seems to be free of them - for a couple of days. While she is at the groomers, I fumigate the house with bombs and sprays. Doesn't seem to help one bit. I know she is upset because she hides from me. I can see them on her face and cannot even pick the little devils off! I live in a warm climate, and I am hoping that the fleas will abate as the weather becomes cooler. As I said, this is the first summer season I have noticed the problem. Any advice and help with be greatly appreciated! Thanks! I am upset because I think she is in misery. -- |
