Not today but this happened last spring after I went out of town for three days. I left my cat at home with her automatic feeder and asked my neighbor to check in regularly. She’s an indoor-outdoor cat, usually comes home by night. But while I was away, she must’ve gone on some flea-infested forest adventure.

When I got back, I was absolutely wiped. I ordered takeout, smoked way too much weed, scarfed down my food, and crashed in bed without even unpacking. I felt a bit of itching around my legs, but I was too high and too numb to care. I knocked out instantly like a brick.

Next morning, I wake up covered in bites. Arms, legs, everything itching like hell. My bed looked like a horror movie. Fleas everywhere, bouncing on the sheets like possessed popcorn.

The kicker? My cat didn’t even sleep in my room that night. She chose the sofa, knowing that my bed was a warzone.

Spent the rest of the day deep cleaning everything and treating her for fleas.

TL;DR: Left town, came back, got way too high, didn’t notice my cat brought home a flea infestation. Woke up covered in bites while my cat smugly avoided the chaos.
