    We've twice bought fleas back from GCCF shows I know its not life threatening or anything but still bloody annoying. I know we didn't take them with us so they must have been picked up there. I show a white cat so theres no chance of missing them! Hope everyone makes a full and speedy recovery

    Was it at Godmanchester? I overheard two fellow show goers complaining about the venue, evidently someone was spun at a vetting in there due to fleas, when she didn't have any problems at home, by all accounts the place is flea paradise, as it is a rescue centre... Woodgreen springs to mind.

    Acually people do get turned away at shows when they should have kept kitty at home, someone tried to show their cat after it had burnt a circle of fur off on their Aga... needless to say the vets thought it was ringworm!

    No, not Godmanchester, it was the Essex and then at the LH&SLH (last year - not this year). Been quite lucky this year *touch wood* not managed to bring any visitors home with us. I've not shown at Godmanchester but have been the three or four times with a friend (who had cats in the show) and she didn't report any problems. I think its just bad luck if it happens and I've got plenty of that

    I guess it is only down to luck with blasted fleas etc... we have never had any fleas at all and yet I know damn well that we could be overrun with them in a blink!

    Happily my two Tassare beauties are now getting better, I was so worried about Roco but now they are both back into making mischief but still snotty grr.
