Today, the abandoned cat that I took in for the night and during bad weather seems to have spread fleas around my house. They're everywhere. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my neighbor brought home a box of kittens he found in the park. Instead of calling animal control, he decided to keep them. Besides the incessant meowing throughout the day and night, a massive horde of fleas decided to migrate through his light sockets and into my nice clean apartment. FML
Today, I'm covered in scratches because a feral cat found its way under the house and tore apart the A/C duct to climb its way into my room in the middle of the night. After 30 minutes of chasing it, I got rid of it, but my room now smells like cat piss and I'm applying Neosporin to places I should never have to. FML
Today, my sister is nursing an injured cat back to health in our home because she accidentally hit it with her car. Now I can't decide which is contributing more to my insomnia: the incessant meowing, or the constant itching because our house is infested with fleas. FML
Today, like every other day for the past two weeks, the strange cat that has adopted me inexplicably made its way into my house and curled up next to my head while I slept. I'm horribly allergic. FML
Today I opened the door for my cat and he brought in a rat with him. Now the rat is hiding in my house. FML
Today, I got to go back into my house after it had been tented. Suddenly, a foul stench filled my house. My husband checked all around the house and finally checked under the house. There were more than 12 dead stray cats under our house, and guess who was in charge of pulling them out? FML
Today, I came home from holiday, only to find my house full of small decomposing animals, courtesy of my cat. FML
Today, I let my new cat sleep in bed with me. It was cute until she wiped a tapeworm onto my arm. FML
Today, after weeks of wondering if my cat has a fetish for licking my bed covers, I finally witnessed him licking up an ant off of the covers. Turns out that my bed is infested with ants. FML
Today, I woke up to shit on my floor and my cat hiding under my comforter. I have to get rid of my new fish because my cat is afraid of it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Now you have a long road of killing all the fleas and not just the adults don't forget about the hidden eggs and pupa! Any where the cat touched I would thoroughly wash and get a flea bomb spray and vacuum vacuum vacuum!

Oh I feel for you! We moved in to a house where the previous owners apparently did not alert anybody to their problem. Our whole house, out pets, and out yard was covered in fleas. We bombed it three times, used sprays, carpet powders, flea baths, spot treatments, collars, and regular frequent spraying. It took us 6 months to kill them all. F Your MFing Life

I have so much respect for you for looking after the cat, we need more people like you! But I would take him to the animal shelter if I were you asap, just to check for anything (other than fleas).

Ignore all the YDIs -- you're a good person for doing that. Flea sprays work, and ask your vet for a localized treatment for the kitty.

You are awesome! If you didn't keep the cat, then I most certainly hope that you found a no-kill shelter that would take it inside of putting it back outside.
