In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

I have no idea about fleas but I just saw the picture of your 3 cats and I must say they are among the most beautiful cats I have ever seen!  Wow! Truly gorgeous felines!   :yesss:

A question about flea life cycle
« Reply #1 on: September 05, 2008, 20:11:27 PM »
I understand that a flea has to have a blood meal before it is able to lay any eggs.

Does anyone know the approximate time before a flea can lay eggs after a meal ?

Is it a case of a flea can lay eggs straight away after a meal or does it takes longer ?
