My adopted kitty went to her new vet today

I noticed she's been scratching her ear, since Sunday. Unusual for her. I had her checked with her previous vet Sept. 30, got her vax and bloodwork up-to-date and had planned to meet with the new vet in March. Anyway, I'm glad I took her in. She has a minor ear infection, and giant surprise-- fleas! She was a 100% indoors at my friend's home and 100% indoors her. So she got a flea treament. I'll have to treat my house, sure don't want fleas. The vet says they'll hitch a ride in on clothes or just get in through cracks. I'll sprinkle salt all around, surprisingly effective.

I got her home and she ate better than the last few days.
