Fleas

Maui has been confined to quarters.  His crimes are:
1 Eating the marina cat's dry cat food, resulting in bladder stones which cause blood in his urine.
2. Bringing home fleas.

Since he's decimated the Brush Rabbit population, we haven't seen too many more sticktite fleas.  But he still has the rest of them, and has shared them with his older sister, who does not leave the boat.

We've been flea-combing the cats daily.  Still pulling the buggers off.

Today, I put another dose of Frontline on Maui.  The fleas started vacating the premises. I was not quick enough for two of them, so I decided he needed to vacate the premises, too, so the vacating fleas would vacate some place else. He had no problem with that.  Good news is he has been back twice for lunch and dinner. Hopefully he will not come back with scars from cat fights.  Fleas like that.  Or a belly full of dry cat food.  He was pretty full of Doug's cat chow #6 when he left.
