Cats cost money  -  and I still don't have any.  

I'm pretty sure Suzi has worms now. Didn't have them at the vet, or so they said.  

My brain wants to break if I think about it too much.   What to do, what to do. 

Well, I guess I'll go do work. That's what to do.

might be tapeworms. they're spread by fleas, so if she has fleas, that's a high possibility. every summer i have to give newman a dose of drontal to kill them, because even with the advantage, he'll still get a few on him that live long enough to give him a tapeworm. they break off in little pieces and they look like dried rice. it's gross.

i've heard that giving them tobacco kills the worms, but i've never tried.

It might work, but it could also poison the cat.

Eh. I couldn't get her to eat that anyway. She's Miss Picky - and I wouldn't want to hurt her.

We got rid of the fleas - and she had Advantage at the vet. (Or Revolution? Can't remember)
