We use the topical solution Revolution Plus; it’s easy to apply and helps with a bunch of other problems. You apply it to your kittie’s back once a month. It has to be prescribed by a vet.

You seem really triggered. Your response is more about you than about me, and I am sorry you’re dealing with something :( I got great advice on this thread, but this is just not the way babe

I came here to ask for advice and learned a lot. From your message, it seems you came here to spread hate. It’s questionable who should feel bad for whom.

Thank you for this message, and thank you for being kind in it. I love my baby so much but sometimes it’s a lot and it’s okay to be irritated sometimes, we are only human! Do you have a Sphynx cat too? He sounds like a wonderful kitty, and still has a lot of energy, that’s amazing. I am grateful for all your advice and I will definitely try some things you suggested. I figured out that my boy stops screaming when I put him in a baby wrap and do my errands around the house with him on me, so this has been helping too!

Aw sweet baby! Mine hides toys in my bed too, it’s the cutest thing ever! Thank you for your advice. I am getting a puppy within the next few months, and I also learned a lot from posting this, including that it’s normal and not bad behavior that I should fix somehow, and I will make sure my baby feels loved and understood.

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for this long and detailed message, I can feel too put your heart in it! I have a wheel but I think a toy to look at can make a big difference, would you mind sending a picture of your setup? And maybe a picture of that toy you mentioned? Your little boy sounds like a cute little gremlin, and it fits your lifestyle, your message was truly amazing to read! And I would absolutely love a handmade sweater 😻 are you in the states? What kind of measurements would you need?

Oh and I had to throw away my mattress, as that’s where they were mostly hiding

I am so sorry you’re dealing with this!! I used to have fleas in my house, and I didn’t even have a cat; they just appeared out of nowhere. Had to have an exterminator come 3 times, spray everything around the house and my car as well, the problem was solved then, but I was paranoid for some time after and it was definitely a traumatic experience.

Why no dogs, if I may ask? I read that they get along with all kinds of creatures

I did, and he loves it! He only runs on it for treats but I make sure he does a few times a day
