hello all! I just got a kitty called conchita I don't have much cat experience
I had two cats in college that me and my roommate took care of in my last year of college but itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s not that much substantial cat experience. My catâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s name is Conchita. It means little shell in Spanish (in Spain; the word means other things in Latin America but weâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]re not getting into that). Um Conchita means “Conchitaâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s mom†in Arabic

Anyway I joined because Conchita has fleas and I am absolutely freaking out because I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t have the experience to deal with this but Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m trying to stay level headed and do crazy research online. Conchita is also a little bit under 12 weeks old. I guess Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ll be soliciting help about my problem in another sub forum?

Thanks all and I look forward to participating in this forum and learning.

Conchita,and congrats on your new family memeber.Yes there is lots of input on fleas here,can't remeber the name of the forum but you will find it easily enough.
Perhaps you should take her to the vets,has she had her first shots yet?
Enjoy your time here.

thanks for the welcome! Conchita is a girl! I haven't taken her to the vet yet; I need to so she can get her shots! I'm still researching vets in my area!
I have been reading the threads on fleas; they have been helpful so far!

I am very paranoid though and I have been scratching myself raw because I feel like they are on me!
