The cat has refused to jump off the bed and go into the kitchen to eat where her bowls are located. All the while, she's scratching herself like crazy.
We got that stuff you put on their necks. Didn't do crap. We got some all-natural stuff we sprayed on her and around the place. That seemed to work.
Temporarily.
The cat is back to not wanting to jump off the bed.
This morning I carried her to the kitchen where I placed her on the counter and moved her bowls from the floor to the counter. Then she ate.
What am I going to do? I guess it's time to try a flea collar?
We had fleas the one time, when we lived out in the country. Tried all sorts of stuff. Finally heard about placing rock salt (like the stuff you put out to melt ice) in containers with some holes in it (or a place the cat can't get into such as under a stand). It either killed or drove away all the fleas. We didn't even seem have them in the yard afterwards.
