I use shampoo for the pets that has that in it to repel fleas and soothe their skin but it had never occurred to me that I could find just the oil! I am going to get some of that. He does have access to dry food too and nibbles on it during the day. I started the twice a day wet food for my cat (and him) because they were so damned skinny. I can tell that my cat's gained weight and hope that now he will too. Ah, tea tree oil!

Here Today Gone Tomorrow hit the nail on the head. I have take in strays in the past, who were neglected such as this cat - and my heart breaks .... you are special Chickie!!

Be careful with the over the counter flea meds, many of them have neurotoxins. I use one of the ones that last a month on one of my cats and she had a really bad reaction to it. I learned to use tea tree oil to keep the fleas away. Once he has gained some weight, switch him to dry food; it's better for him and his teeth and his poop won't smell as nasty. Neglect is abuse too (and illegal) and if you decide to call the humane society, let them know that you would like to foster the cat. They may let you keep him. you may want to take pictures.
