Nasty Tick hitch a ride and fed on Porsche

My cousin JY found a tick on me and manage to get it off me with a tweezer.  She got grandma to keep the tick to confirm with mummy when she is home.  I guess it is a tick alright coz mummy freak out when she saw the corpse.  Long before I came to this home, mummy had a huge and long battle with ticks and jie jie even caught a tick fever back then. It isn’t something she will handle lightly. She check us thoroughly to make sure there isn’t another one hiding somewhere.

 

The next morning, mummy wanted to put Frontline on us and the shop near our place (not our regular petshop) was out of Frontline. Mummy doesn’t have the habit of putting these stuffs on us cause they…afterall are toxic.  She doesn’t trust these unless it is for desperate measures. This shop recommended Hartz Flea & Tick 3 in 1 and provide some info which convinced mummy.  She applied that on us to help us prevent any possible runaway ticks that might harm us.

 

Just to be on the safe side, she didn’t forget to check on internet if there are more info about Hartz but didn’t find much on Y search.
