So the babies have fleas. Poor kids had to get a bath, the first one in their lives. Once they got over the shock/fear of water it actually seemed like they enjoyed being in the tub and having us rub them with soothing shampoo. Then the fleas ran for the hills (read their faces) as we were drying them off cause it was the only dry part. We must have picked off over a dozen fleas between the 3 cats. The pic of Stinker didn't turn out, so we only have a wet Boo and Dewey.
We took them to the vet and got treatment for 6 months, so this is an ongoing thing, though we wont have to bathe them again. We've treated our house and done a ton of laundry. Every time I itch, I swear it's a flea. :-/
