Ticks...

[IndyJones]

Anyone else having problems with ticks? I just picked two off Indy and I have no idea where she got them unless they were on my pantleg after my walk.

I didn't have any attached to me when I came in but Indy somehow got two ticks. One on her neck and another on her elbow. I have checked both cats thuroghly and tossed my clothes in the wash on "alergine" cycle.

Must be a bad season for them or something.

Oh, yikes. I haven't had to pull a tick off of a cat in a long time, thankfully. I haven't heard of it being a particularly bad season around here. Good luck, I hope you don't have to deal with any more.

I’ve noticed more ticks on our working dogs then usual and had to treat them with prescription medication this year. I think they have been worse where I’m from. I’ve also noticed a few fleas on me! Not sure what’s up with that. It’s always a good idea to treat cats with flea and tick treatment just to be sure.
