kahljorn "Pour the water on your kittys head and back and then put it in the tub full of water."

lol the last time we did that to my cat we had to hold him by his scruff while he danced around like a marionette.

noob3 the only loved one to pass away in my entire life was my 15 year old cat, seminole. it was like the first family member to die. and she had fleas. for 15 years. she lived outside, and i'm sure her and her fleas had great adventures together. oh, how I miss seminole.

i hear cats without fleas dont have adventures

(i posted this before reading the above mr adventure post, which I found to be hilarious. because, his name IS mr adventure and he's had fleas. pretty funky eh?)

MrAdventure the treatment you choose should depend on a few things, such as the climate (fleas just for summer or most of the year?) and the intensity of infestation, along with consideration of the cat's age/health/weight/indoor or outdoor/etc

i recommend those frontline// advantage // revolution style (do not buy the cheaper versions, they are utter rubbishy shit) treatments if you've experienced multiple flea episodes or if the infestation grows beyond just the cats getting bitten (which will happen easily if untreated, flea eggs do not stick to surfaces, rolling off into the carpet and furniture PLUS they have the ability to remain dormant for very very long periods of time if no food sources are detected)

another bonus of the application of the lethal hair coating (which should remain in effect ~1 month) is that the fleas will usually prefer the cat to the people, which pulls an auschwitz style roundup, removing the menace entirely as they are killed before being able to reproduce, sparing you from having to carpet bomb or call an exterminator

sorry for going all jeanette x yall if you cant tell i've had fleas

I learned in Zoology class that diatomaceous earth is formed from the empty bodies of fossilized diatoms and that it is mainly used as an abrasive, which is why toothpaste has that gritty feeling. I didn't know it dehydrates things, though. All of my cats never had fleas.

zeldasbiggestfan What you should do is get some warm water and special kitty shampoo. Then get a cup and fill it up along with a sink or bath tub. Pour the water on your kittys head and back and then put it in the tub full of water. The should drown alot of them. Then put on the special kitty shampoo and that should make alot if not all of them go bye bye. At least thats what I did. AND IT WORKED. YAY.

Sethomas I beat my cat until it understands that I don't like fleas and it decides not to have them anymore.
Nov 7th, 2006 03:08 PM
Dr. Boogie We use Revolution (Selamectin). You spray it on the back of your cat's head, and then your cats wanders off, comes back a hour later, and tricks you into petting him so that you wind up with a hand that smells like turpentine.

Still, it seems to keep the fleas away.

kahljorn i just use those flea colars you buy from stores, but we've never had a serious problem with fleas...

they also have flea baths, i think that's what they use at groomers..

MetalMilitia My parents use this thing which is like a light you put on the floor and underneath it it has a sticky poisonous surface. I guess fleas are dumb like moths because they all seem to want to jump right on in and get killed.

DeadKennedys I use a product called Frontline, it's not dangerous to the cat, but you should wash your hands after touching the chemical cause you don't wanna swallow it

eggyolk i know it sounds like a chore, but flea bombing your house is the only way to go i've found

or:



you know what to do

Grislygus A dog we adopted had fleas and ticks for a long time. We had to use overpriced medicine, which only partially worked, for months. In the meantime, our house and yard became infested by the little vermin.

So basically, the Daotomato Earth stuff sounds like a pretty good suggestion from my perspective.
