As promised

As promised, i woke up and made many calls to the pet grooming center and managed to get hold of one and brought Yan down immediately.

When we are there, i asked the groomer if she knows how to spot ticks, she say Yes with a straight face and i'm glad. At least someone more experienced can check again for me.

Waited outside the pet shop for almost 3hours, finally Yan is done. I asked whether there's anymore ticks, she say No firmly, i was thanking God at that moment. But still, to be safe i spent $60+ on Frontline Plus so i can make double sure and also in case if there is anymore of them i can eliminate them right away.

When we reached home, we examine her again and spotted 2 more (Damn it, that stupid groomer) and quickly applied the Frontline on her. After that spotted another one near her arm but have finished 1 dose so have to let it spread itself. After applying, we were dicussing whether to remove them or not but i'm afraid i might not be able to do it correctly so we dropped the idea and decide to let the doctor do it tomorrow.

But after 20minutes, i can't take it and i'm still worried that they might spread virus so i took a tweezer and remove them. The 2 that we drip the solution on directly is very easy to remove, whereas the one we didn't i actually tried 4times before successfully removing it, but it was smashed by the force i used on the tweezer. (Serve you right, you wicked creature) Then like what we did yesterday, i quickly clean up the wound and then check again if there's anymore that we missed out.

I almost forgot when we were trying to remove the last one, one annoying tick jump out of nowhere and landed on the funnel Yan was wearing while i put the Frontline and when removing those idiots. We are so surprised by it cos it's alive and still jumping so Hubby quickly get a tissue to catch it before it runs away. Luckily we manage to catch it.

Checked everywhere, under the paws, under the ear, tail area, armpits, everywhere and think there's no more before we put everything to a rest. I seriously hope there's no more. Please!! Go away if you are there!

We are worried that it might be from the mattress so i changed the bedsheet and washed the blankets.

Now we have no blankets, and Yan have no furs...
Bought these pillow case from Tiong Bahru Market at $9. So cute, i heart my Melody!! My 'My Melody' Mug in office is broken, got to get a new one! Hmph~ And also, my lunch purse is going to break off soon. Got to get a new one too!! I've been using that purse for like 4 years man..
