Today was replenish fur baby supplies day, which is also lifting exercise day

I bought a 28+lb bag of litter, a 32 pound bag of kibble and a 60 can case (20+ lbs) of pate. 💪

Also picked up more treats, including 'calming' treats for Carys (buy one, get one free), along with some not so cheap flea spray. Fleas are HORRIBLE, this year. I think they are in a terrorism pact with the fruit flies.

And as much as I spent, they are worth every penny spent.

They are very simple to use, and I am astonished by how quickly and effectively they solve flea problems.

I tried using contact medication and she FREAKED. She is still only mildly socialized and I never know, from day to day, how comfortable she will be around me.

I'm looking to get some food grade Diatomaceous earth to try.

I had terrible problems with fleas for a while. It's flea season year round down here in the jungle. I kept treating the fur kids and the carpets etc. I didn't have any real success until I sprayed the yard too. Anyway, good luck and give the kitties some extra skritches for me. They're so cute!!

We're getting rain tomorrow so I'll spray on Friday. I also ordered some food grade Diatomaceous earth.
