I'm running away ...

...from this flea-circus. Yup, that's right, Kyrre has brought home bird-fleas (if that's what it's called in English). Luckily they don't reproduce (?) on cats and humans, but as long as Kyrre is chasing birds they will keep hiking with him (the fleas, not the birds). I bought this spray at the petstore to use on Kyrre's fur, so that the fleas are not attracted by him. Hopefully that helps Smile

But over to the "running away", we're going on a holiday to Croatia on May 17th, and staying a week Very Happy

So I won't be around much in the days to come. The people we rent from is coming over tomorrow to get to know Kyrre; they're taking care of him while we're away. I feel bad leaving him home alone, but hopefully he won't miss us too much since he'll be able to spend some time outside during the day.

Have a good trip! I'm sure Kyrre will be fine, but it's always hard to leave the little ones behind!

Welcome back Bente! Surprised

Thank you

It seems like the bird fleas are gone Surprised

At least I hope so, I got two more bites the day I got home, but haven't felt anything since. We also don't allow Kyrre in the bedroom as much as we used to. Offcourse I cave in now and then Wink

Here are some pictures from Croatia for those of you who are interested:
