Now I have two cats that both need their monthly flea treatment ............ the little black one is speedy and has a good memory and an exceptional nose, so the moment u open the dropper thing she is off ............ and I mean at 100 miles an hour and doesnt appear for hours either ................... the other cat is old and slow and viscious ........... but if he smells the stuff I have put on her then he goes wild!!!!! which do I do first ...............

The Speedy one.

The reason for this is that if you do the older one first, the Speedy one will keep smelling the flea treatment and will stay away. However, doing 'Mr Speedy' first will mean he runs off (as he's feeling all violated) allowing you the chance to sneak up on 'Mr Bitey'.

Chainmail gloves and a modified bear trap should do the trick

A good idea is to desensitize your cats to the smell of it over a period of time. Put the drops close to a very tasty smelling bit if food your cat loves and over time bring the food and drops closer. Over time your cat will associate the smell of the drops with the lovely food and want to come closer rather than run away.

Sounds like my cats.

I strap on body armour first. Lock all doors and windows. Entice them into one room and shut the door.

Then about an hour later I'm changing the shredded curtains, fixing the table lamps then applying plasters to my bits of body that there claws always manage to find! !!!

Best of luck.

Capture one and close in the bathroom - prolly best if its the old, slow one - then tempt the fast one out with a bit of tuna and treat.

Then take a bit more tuna into bathroom and then whilst he's eating (and a bit less miffed about getting penned up) swaddle in a towel and treat.

Then run away from pissed off cats very quickly!

Minxie,,,,Being such a traditionalist I'm forced to say the old one first ……

For no reason other than following the convention of age before youth....

I mean like when you give up your seat on a bus or open a door for an elder….!.

Tricky with two.

Last time with my one cat all went very esasily. Normally hates it and struggles lots.

This time I got the pipette to hand and waited till she fell asleep on my lap, gently stroking the back of her neck.

She woke up as I finished applying it and then looked horrified, but then trotted into the kitchen for food.

Don't expect it to be so easy again.

Have you got anyone to give you a hand?

It really is one hand for the pipette and two to hold the cat.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

Wait until they are napping then throw a net over them and treat them.

I used to have to wait until my cat was asleep and sneak up on her. The way I caught her may also work. I used to go to the loo. She always followed me in, no where else just there, and would sit near my feet. I'd wait until she'd sat down then scoop her up and hang on for dear life.

Good luck.
