A few weeks ago we had a 19 year old cat brought into the centre called Beauty. It was a very sad story her owner was too ill to keep her.
For a 19 year old Beauty is still full of life but she was also full of fleas when she first arrived. We have never seen anything like it. We treated her for fleas the day she came in and combed what seemed like hundreds of fleas from her coat. The following day we combed her again and over 50 dead fleas came off of her.
She is now flea free and feels so much better for it. This really goes to show how important it is to have your cat treated for fleas regularly. We have however found a use for the dead fleas. We have kept them in a pot ready to take to schools talks and assembly's!
