Good thing Misty didn't go near, they are usually riddled with fleas.......
All my cats were free of fleas, even Tosca, until we got a hedgehog in the garden and 3 of them hung around to study this strange creature. They even tried to paw and bite it..... and encountered a lot of needles.
Unfortunately they brought home quite a number of fleas, which I can only assume came from the hedgehog.
