Hello everyone!
I am a new cat owner. I have had my cat for a little under a year. For the entire time I've had him he has been an indoor cat. He's managed to slip outside a few times while I've had the door open for a second or two but I've brought him right back in without event.
Recently I put my home on the market and despite the signs I put all over the doors and in the home listing, someone let the cat outside. The cat is inside and safe now but unfortunately he came back riddled with fleas. Being a new cat owner I'm super sensitive any time anything looks out of whack with my cat. So I immediately called my Vet and they told me to stop by and pick up a one time pill that was going to "Kill everything on him in 30 minutes" and a package of Frontline.
Well I finally managed to get the pill down my cats throat and despite the 30 minute claim he is still biting, scratching, and looking very uncomfortable. I can still see them on him especially around his face. I put the Frontline on as best I could however I'm still concerned.
Any tips on how to get rid of these things? Am I just being too paranoid?
Thanks for any advice!
Have a great day...
Gary
