We are still looking for the owner of a stray who arrived with us yesterday. He sadly isn't microchipped but is wearing a collar.
Please share his post so we can reunite him.

Fleas!! 😱
Fun flea facts 🐶🐱🐰
🐾 Fleas can lay 2000 eggs in their lifetime
🐾 Fleas can survive more than 100 days without a blood meal in the pupae phase
🐾 A flea can jump approximately 150 times its own height
🐾 Fleas can cause hypersensitivity reactions and a large flea burden can lead to anaemia. Fleas can also transmit tapeworm and other diseases.
🐾 95% of fleas are likely to live in the environment, not on your pet
🐾 In the pupae phase, fleas are very resistant to most chemicals
🐾 An ideal treatment regime would ensure:
✅ All in contact animals are treated
✅ Animals are treated for at least 3 months with an effective product. The product should be applied correctly, given at the right dose for the pet and at the advised treatment interval
✅ To decrease other life cycle stages, the house can be treated with an insecticidal (ensure instructions are followed carefully as some products are toxic to cats, birds and fish). Regular hoovering and washing bedding is advised
