so, tina and i were hanging out last night, and we both noticed that we had gotten small bites. then she showed me a spot on her bed where dudley had been laying, and there was a little bit of what looked like black dander. fleas!
oh my god, we have fleas!
gross!!
in the past two weeks, pepper has developed scabs all over her neck, and now her fur is thinning in weird patches. i thought she was having an allergic reaction to something, and i was right- my poor kitty cat is highly allergic to fleas! my cats have never, ever had fleas before. i mean, what the hell? how could they even have gotten them? they never go outside. i live in an apartment on the third floor, and there's no way fleas can jump that high. the only thing i can think of is at my birthday party, people were going outside to smoke, and they were petting the indoor/outdoor kitty who lives a floor down, and then they came in to pet my kitties. it's not too bad yet, but i have noticed dudley and larry itching quite a bit more this past week.
tonight, i am getting that advantage stuff for all of the kitties, and i'll be sanitizing everything. i mean, EVERYTHING! i think bugs are cool and all, but not when they are in my sheets and my couch, and feeding off my cats, and who knows what else. ugh!
theresa, if you still want to take larry, i hope you don't mind me holding on to him for a little bit longer so i can make sure he doesn't bring fleas to your apartment.
what a pain in the ass this is going to be though! stay away from my apartment for awhile...
