PS. A piece of Amethyst crystal in Ernie's water bowl might help fight
fleas.

Hmmm, that's interesting. Where did you hear that?

Well, from many sources! I am very much into crystals myself, and wearing at
least 1 LB of them right now. Couldn't recall sources right now, but will
try to go back trough my records if this is important to you

No, it's okay, I just never heard it before. I'm a little bit into crystals
and gemstones (as well as loving jewelry, anyway) so I read a little about it
now and then...but not a whole lot. On my chart, I see it says for amethyst,
"strengthens endocrine and immune systems...powerful blood cleanser and
energizer..." as well as many other things. I just never would have thought to
put it into a water bowl for a cat.

I see you're the same kind of strict disciplinarian as I am.

Glad to hear he's doing better. Any clue what made him sick?

Have you tried treating with Program as well? My understanding is it doesn't
kill the adult fleas but stops the eggs from developing into adults. Between
Program, Advantage and treating the carpets for fleas you should be able to
get it under control.

All of his test results came back great! He still has a bit of a fever,
but is responding well to antibiotics, so they sent him home with some
clavomox. He's much more talkative, purrs, and is still eating and
drinking well. He's a bit anemic, but we've been battling fleas here
since the fosters came in (which is wierd, as they were on Advantage
when I got them, as are my guys). I'm much relieved.
