    Protip: check for fleas, had one of these pop up in my backyard a couple years and and nearly infested our house with them. Still have the fellow though, weirdly likes his ears scratched heavily due to his early flea infestation.

      As someone whos had many cats show up this way… Don’t bother checking just assume and treat. Depending on your area, solid chance your fleas may be mostly immune to the cheaper flea collars. I’ve never met a flea infestation that could survive a few weeks of oral nitenpyram and you can order that online.
