It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
That's what they keep trying to hint at, but...

Mine seem to helpfully present theirs to my face whenever I'm trying to nuzzle them, so I guess they're vigilant about the potential problem. Yay?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, is the moral of this story "Look at your cat's butt more"?
I mean, possibly, but I'm going to stick with "Bring a new cat to the vet."

Sadly, I took Fleabie to the vet when I got her but the tapeworms manifested afterwards. Apparently it takes a while between ingesting the infected fleas and the development of the worms. But it depends on the type of worms.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So maybe I did the right thing after all????

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Round worms are another flea-bourne possibility.

It's probably good to take a new cat to the vet first thing, but it's not going to catch everything. I'd had cats all by life but hadn't run across tapeworms before so I wasn't aware of what to look for afterwards.

Our wings are not tired.
And you are NOT the first buffista pet owner to have a wormy pet, I assure you.
Yeah.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Took Mr. S to a birthday party for the daughter of friends of ours. Of course he was a wild man, getting into everything. (Gary's away on a business trip until Tuesday night. sigh.)
