Thanks for the heads up! At this point we're spending so much money on it I'm willing to try something a little more expensive </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temporary-living-situation-pet-help#post-2886235 Fri, 31 May 2019 23:03:08 +0000 MenagerieMama 2886235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oye, is the dog being treated too?</p> <p>Also make sure that the flea stuff your cat is on doesn't have local resistance in the area. The stuff we bought at the petstore when we had our first flea problem (from the indoor only cats) apparently is useless. We had to get an Rx from the vet. Sadly more expensive but worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temporary-living-situation-pet-help#post-2886230 Fri, 31 May 2019 22:48:43 +0000 ALV91711 2886230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If your MIL can’t take the cat then if board it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temporary-living-situation-pet-help#post-2886208 Fri, 31 May 2019 19:53:12 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2886208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ElbieKay: because the cat groomer is only available on certain days and times 😫 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temporary-living-situation-pet-help#post-2886200 Fri, 31 May 2019 18:36:39 +0000 ElbieKay 2886200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Why don’t you just move the grooming appointment to June 8th and bring the cat straight to the new house? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temporary-living-situation-pet-help#post-2886192 Fri, 31 May 2019 17:43:42 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2886192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We sold our house at the end of April and ended up moving in with my parents while we look for a new one. Meanwhile, our cat has been staying with my brother right next door.</p> <p>Out cat has been 100% indoor since we adopted her about a year ago and we've never had any issue. My brother has a medium size outdoor dog who was indoor/outdoor all the way up until the cat had been there for maybe 2 weeks. </p> <p>So now we are dealing with a flea infestation. I've been spraying the cat weekly, using drops between her shoulders + a flea collar. We have evacuated and bug bombed his house and STILL there are fleas. </p> <p>We close on our new home next Friday, June 7th. We have a grooming appointment for the cat next Wednesday June 5th. I don't really want her to go back to my brothers house after that because I don't want to deal with fleas in my new home. </p> <p>I have three options:<br /> 1) I can ask my MIL if the cat can stay with her after the appointment, Wednesday to Friday. </p> <p>2) I can bomb my brothers house again while the cat is at her appointment and hope the best. </p> <p>3) I can board her somewhere? </p> <p>My mom is absolutely not going to let the cat stay with us those few days. So WWYD? Any thing I haven't thought of? </p>
