I Gots Cooties.
Hi. This is Freddy speakin'. Uh, I don't know how to tell you peoples on the innernets this but...uh...I think I gots me some cooties. It's kinda skeery. See, I was lovin' on mommy last night 'fore she falled asleep. We was kissin' and stuff and she was scratchin' my butt-tocks when she said "Freddy! What on earth?!?...The fur on you hind leg is gone!...You must have cooties!!!"
Now I ain't exzactly sure what cooties is and why they eated all the hairs on my hind leg. Are they like pets? Do I needs to feed 'em? Was they hungry and that's why they had to eat my hairs? Do they need to be petted and licked? I wonner if they poop in the litter box or "go" somewhere else? This is a lotta responsibility for a little boy like me! I've asked my brothers and sisters and they all say they ain't never had them no hair-eatin' cooties. I don't know what to do. Mommy said we must see Aunt Doktor Dugan rights away. I'll ask her! Aunt Doktor Dugan knows everything and I won't have to worry 'bout my cooties 'cause she will take care of 'em!
Very truly yours,
Freddy


We don't know how to look after cooties either. Maybe Daisy would know cuz she had Sea Monkeys furr pets, and she's studying to be a doctor. She knows efurryfing.

I hope Aunt Doktor Dugan helps you soon! I'm not sure what cooties are, but if they are eating your furs, then they need to be stopped right away! We mancats need to keep our furs.

Cootie alert! Cootie alert!! Our Callie gets hair-eating cooties sometimes. She doesn't take very good care of them, though -- she just puts the bitey on them. Do you think she'll get reported to the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cootie Abuse)?

I am pretty sure only boy cats have cooties.
Do you think you could have the ringworm? I never heard of it on the butt before though, it usually is around the face and ears, so I doubt that is it. It must just be cooties.
