Ok folk I shouldn't panic but I found a few fleas on Junior. I combed out what I could. It was only 4 fleas and only a little flea dirt. However his vet last year told me it only takes one flea to cause *Haemobartonella. Now that was a year ago b4 his Felv dx. He was not tested for Haemobartonella, but was put on antibiotics. I really think the anemia was from the FeLV infection stage. He was only treated with Baytril for a week, maybe it was two weeks. He has not had anemia since. Junior is pretty much on his own but occasionally Silver goes into his room. I am guessing that is where the flea(s) came from. I had not had fleas on my cats all summer, and yes I check them with a flea comb. This past week, I started seeing a few so, I have been treating that cats with Advantage. Junior just got this as well. * ** *I hope Junior will be ok. He is doing so well. Unfortunately I cannot spray or vacuum Erics room. He is in there 95% of the time due to COPD and possible polymyositis. His msucle biopsy shoud come back this week. That is where Junior stays.* ** *Sally*
