After settling the cats in, I went outside for about an hour and battled the wild thorn bushes in the yard, cutting them back.

Just now, while in the machine shop, i started noticing a rather odd feeling in my left armpit. After it got annoying enough, i took a look, and for petes sake, it's only March 20th, still officially winter, and i just had L remove my first attached tick of the season. F$#&&!@&^%g parasites.

well, if you sat around in a thorn bush ALL Winter, waiting for a tasty bit of blood, you'd attach fast too...

i wonder how fast a tick can sprint?

Oh yeah, my outdoor feral cat had a few ticks last week, I dosed him with Frontline as soon as I could get him to sit still.

Coming from both New Zealand and the UK, where we don't have to worry about such things, can I just say:

"ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
"ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
*pause for breath*
"ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

::looks around furtively to see if anyone notices I'm commenting on LJ when I said that I wouldn't be::

Sheeesh. You'd think that there would be some, I dunno, growing period where baby ticks needs to get big enough first. ;-/

Thanks for the PSA, however inadvertant. I dosed our cats with FrontLine today.
