September 3rd 2015 - Fleas

Horrible nasty little things!  My poor kitten is covered in them and she doesn't even go outside yet.  She has had a couple of baths and now has a flea collar on but still has them.

I found today's pin online, it is linked to removing fleas from kittens via a head lice comb and tub of water - however, with plain water the fleas can limb back out quite easily.  This pin says to add a drop of washing up liquid to the water and mix it together - it makes the water denser and the fleas sink to the bottom.  I have removed loads from the kitten and have given the older 2 cats new collars.
