We have fleas
Well, someone apparently has fleas, and I guess that means we all do.
I don't see any, but a follow up to Nipsy's ear surgery shows that he still has some issues, and the doc thinks it's probably fleas. Great. It's my fault. I did give them Frontline before letting the start to go outside, but didn't give them another dose after 30 days. They got one yesterday and I'm washing stuff in the house. I don't think I need a full flea treatment - there don't seem to be many of them and with everyone treated (myself excluded) maybe we're ok. The good news is that Baby went out today. I've been very busy and will be for another week, and really didn't have time to let them out, but I had about an hour so I opened the door. Nipsy and Scooter bolted outside, and much to my surprise, Baby gingerly followed. She wasn't out long. Nipsy came flying in making all kinds of noise (I have no idea what he saw) and Baby came right back in. Scooter followed a few minutes after and I closed the door because I had to go out. Oddly, Baby just was walking all over the house, even near me, which is very unusual. She let's me pet her, but when I'm walking around she generally runs away. Maybe going back out for that little while bumped her confidence up. She was a completely outside cat until I grabber her before moving to Florida. Well, that's the news. Nobody is scratching very much, but I'm taking it fairly seriously. When I have some time, maybe I'll do a full flea treatment. It's not like it ever gets cold enoough to kill them. |
