Please do not read this on a weak stomach

I took my elder cat, Scotty, to see the vet for long overdue shots. There has also been a somewhat ovious case of increased itching among the family, along with little blackish specks that disolve into a reddish color in water. The diagnosis: fleas. Add some Advantage flea medicine to the list, which has been applied to both cats. And I’ll have to vacuum those specks, which are flea droppings 🙁
