Even if you have indoor-only cats, they can get fleas. A vet once told
me, If a squirrel runs through your yard, you can have a flea
infestation in the house. True, dat. My college roommate and I had
three indoor cats, and one summer they all became so infested we had to
bomb the house... Twice.
Same here- I put the baby food in a bowl, and then run the hot water into the
empty jar- fill it up, then dump it in the bowl and mix it up.
