New kitty pics of Houdini and Cheetah! Tons of pics!
OK, first off let me point out that when I went over to the apartment yesterday they were infested with fleas. :( :mad: Dan has their Frontline there in the house but he forgot to put it on. Houdini was so bad! I went into the bathroom where she likes to sleep and there was blood droppings everywhere. I can't be angry at Dan because he has a lot on his plate, and they are my cats so they are my responsibility. So tomorrow I am heading over there to give both of them a bath and put their Frontline on. When I got home I uploaded their pics and it looks like Cheetah has a tick in her ear? When I post the pictures you can see what I'm talking about. Cheetah doesn't even go outside anymore at all so I am wondering how on earth she got a tick? The only one that goes out is Ewok, and I am going to have to find him to put some Frontline on him too. I just feel awful for them. :( I can't wait to get them flea free.
I called Dan tonight to ask if he could look at Cheetah but he said he couldn't see anything in her ear. Hrmm. I am going over there tomorrow with tweezers just in case it is a tick. I just hope it's not something else. I'm wondering if I should get flea collars as well? :confused:
Anyways, I just don't understand it. What's worse is that I also found (after looking at these photos) a gash in Houdini's leg. So I am going to have to look at that as well. Dan also told me that Cheetah had a HUGE thorn stuck in her nose and he had to pull it out. He said it was about 2 inches long. Now, either Dan is lying to me about the cats being indoors only and he is still letting them out, or weird things are happening to my cats. I imagine he's still letting them outside. :rolleyes: They've always been indoor/outdoor cats as the house is far away from any major street and it's in the middle of the forest, so they are pretty safe, but I hate having to deal with fleas. I just cannot STAND fleas!!!
Anyways, I'll stop babbling right now. Please pray for my kitties. I hope the bath and Frontline works fast tomorrow. I don't want them being uncomfortable. Some good news though about Cheetah. She is finally starting to put on some weight and doesn't look as thin as she used to. The vet still doesn't know why she goes through these episodes but I'm assuming one day we'll find out. :( Her thyroid tests always come back negative so I'm at a loss as to what causes her symptoms.
Since I haven't seen my cats in awhile (as I don't want to move them unless I absolutely have to!) I made an effort to spend some quality time with them playing etc. As soon as I got there Houdini started rubbing on my shoes. She loves the smell of feet LOL!:p
