hi guys, so here is my story...
i have adopted two kitties..one is quite like tabby + white coloured male and the other one is calico female. both are domestics. i hv had them since July last year. I cudnt get their age right...when i got them both, the previous owner who took care of them said they are almost 5 mths. but i can see the calico female is quite petite..somewhat over 3-4mths...then the male tabby is quite big for his age. i did spayed the male tabby after a month or so...so he is getting quite chubby, meanwhile the calico female is still in 'prestine' condition (not yet spay) and petite even she's getting older. so recently, both of them got some fleas on their body which i noticed last friday, it was horrible to see those bloody bugs running around their furs. i was quite shocked because i did left them in their cage when im away from home since 28th January then came back around 8th February and let my family fend them of course..but none of them realised that my fur babies got them fleas. even my dad's domestic long hair black cat got it, nobody aware of that. i brought them for ivomex shot except the DLH black cat, because i only have budgets for my two cats. before that, i did shampoo-ed them with flea & tick shampoo but not that effective. so the next day, i went to the petshop to buy those flea collars and some advantage spot on for fleas. i dunno if those things are enough to battle the fleas..im quite panicked a bit but calmed down eventually when i try to look for those bloody bugs in their furs...i didnt saw them running around but quite a few did fell on the bed and some on the blanket. i hope they are gone for good...

so did anyone have this kind of situation with the cats?? pls share your experiences and opinions...thank you

u can try frontline for cats ... those badass are awesome counter to fleas and ticks ... website below

yeah i heard abt that, a bit pricey but do a good job they say. so i have to choose between that and Advantage Spot On because Advantage got a lil bit discounted price. I heard abt this Advantage from a community who are catlovers in Facebook that I joined for quite some time. So i gave it a try for that.
If anything fails, then I ought to get that Frontline Combo for cats. Im having a hard time though for not letting them licking each other...they love to lick each other unsure.gif unsure.gif

have you had tried those homemade fleas killer...?? have u any experience on that? they say using apple cider vinegar is quite good, even the cats can lick it off but i know the smell is quite off putting..

Is it ok for little kittens as young as a month old to consume some rice with fish meat?? My friend quite stressed abt it...because the young follows the big cats eating habit. What gives??
