Fleas!!!!

The kittens have fleas!
Not sure how they got them, the mother cat goes out but we check her often
and I haven't seen on her.  David noticed them on the white kitten.  So yesterday
David and Hannah spent time trying to get rid of the fleas!  David got a special
comb, by dipping it in water with dish soap and combing through the fur some
of the fleas were killed. Decided that wasn't enough so he gave the cats a bath.
First the mother cat, she didn't complain too much but came back in shaking her
paws, then sat and licked herself for about half an hour!  David then took the
kittens which freaked the mother cat out!  I told her we weren't hurting the kittens
but she wouldn't have it! She was mewing so loud! On and on for ages!  She kept it
up in the evening which upset the dog. Between the cat and the dog it got really noisy
here, until after midnight!  The mother cat is still upset with us and gives us bad eyes!
The kittens still have some fleas, but seem okay!  Just have to keep them away from
the sofa and carpets!
