Gee thanks!

I just took in a stray cat last Tuesday. It ran up onto my porch in a pouring rainstorm as I was leaving for work. I took it straight to the vet before letting it in the house and near my other -healthy- pets. The vet assured me there was nothing wrong with it but near starvation, so...... since it didn't seem to belong to anyone, and many $ later for shots and de-fleaing and de-worming, I have new cat. It has patches hair nearly gone all over it's legs and neck. The vet says he checked for all skin disorders, and the patches are just where he chewed and scratched itchy spots from the fleas, and it will be vastly improved within a week.

Still.....after looking at the photo, I find myself starting to itch.....
