This is my second time fostering. First was a mom and four 8 week old kittens. They were all a piece of cake and got adopted quickly. Today, I went to a yucky house and picked up two supposed 6 month old kittens and a pregnant mother. I say supposed because they (males) seem rather large for 6 months. The rescue I foster for took the pregnant mother. They inspected the two males and found flea dirt on them -- great. Fleas, for some reason, are my worst nightmare.
They were treated with Capstar and Advantage Multi six hours ago. They are comfortable in a crate in my garage right now. It is 56 degrees in the garage and probably won't go down past 50 overnight (garage is insulated).
I really want to bring them in, but I feel like I should wait until morning because of the possibility of fleas. Also, she told me to flea comb them, and I plan on doing this in the laundry room (where there is better light) -- I just want to be sure that no live fleas will still exist.
I also would like to see them eat and use the litter pan in the crate in the garage before I bring them in. Will they be ok in the 50 degree garage overnight??
