powder
Cats hate it, and groom themselves of it later. Is this healthy?
shampoo
They quickly learn to run at the sound of the bathtub water!!
collar
Both of them learned to walk and squirm backwards until they could work
the collar off
Now I've found the solution:
Their flea comb is made in England.
It's teeth are finer than the ones you'll find in the pet
superstores. This means you can get all the fleas!
This website has a good picture of one.
What I do (I would patent
the idea, if it wasn't so darned simple) is use the comb and
some 1" wide masking tape from the hardware
store. I comb my cat, then when I find a flea
stuck in the teeth of the comb I push a
piece of masking tape against the teeth of the comb,
sticking the flea against the tape.
Then I move the tape and the flea off the comb, double
over the tape, and seal the flea's fate
forever. Really easy and clean!
