Oh no! Fleas really are a pain, and I imagine much harder to spot on black cats! Our little dog was white all over so we managed to catch them quite early, but still had to do the whole spray the house thing. (There's a tablet you can get called Capstar which is meant to kill the fleas almost instantly, useful to have on hand in case of any future problems)

Thanks! I didn’t even think I’d need to worry about them with indoor cats!

Yep: been there! Frontline and lots of combing and you’ll be fine in no time. Those little buggers are quite fun to catch and squeeze between your nails, aren’t they? (no? just me?)

Haha! That’s what the woman from the rescue said! I can’t do it 🥴

Oh nooo, I’m sorry to hear about the fleas! 😭

Thanks. Not as sorry as I was 🥴 The cats aren’t scratching anymore so hopefully the meds and relentless hoovering have paid off 🙏🏻
