You are my hero...I am almost four years in and I don't think I will make it that long;) I think it's pretty ridiculous that the anonymous commenter felt the need to be that hostile in their post.

A few weeks later I removed my very first yucky tick at the Humane Society where I vounteer. I used the information I have gathered, including your post, to safety remove the tick. It went swimmingly, but still left me a little queazy :/<br />Your response was the best, humble with backbone :)<br />-Elizabeth, UT<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861555359944928813.post-11365697412106678622014-05-14T11:31:03.377-04:002014-05-14T11:31:03.377-04:00Great post!

They would probably advise not to squeeze this particular tick because it will release more of the toxin from the tick to the pet that could potentially be dangerous and life threatening to the pet. If the mouth of a tick breaks off in the removal its not the end of the world yeah they may be at risk of infection but regardless the owner should take their pet straight to the vets for further advice and treatment if required.<br />JaxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17643618312644774115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861555359944928813.post-75602580907431087542014-05-13T21:30:16.802-04:002014-05-13T21:30:16.802-04:00Hi Morgan,

I was not really worried about the threat, but I did want to make sure that I was giving the right information in my post.<br />As for the CDC recommendations....that was one of the sites I found when doing my research. I am pretty confident in the way I remove ticks. :)<br />Lisa, MFFMy Furry Friendshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03957566282521723511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861555359944928813.post-75292009584736907682014-05-13T21:21:14.684-04:002014-05-13T21:21:14.684-04:00Thank you Katiemsee!Thank you Katiemsee!My Furry Friendshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03957566282521723511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861555359944928813.post-29418063409845070532014-05-13T21:20:29.053-04:002014-05-13T21:20:29.053-04:00 :) :)My Furry Friendshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03957566282521723511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861555359944928813.post-66930050976276335762014-05-13T11:37:59.124-04:002014-05-13T11:37:59.124-04:00Who is that commenter going to report you to and h...Who is that commenter going to report you to and how does she recommend you remove a tick? Why bother commenting on a 3yo post?! Nowhere in your post did you say you squeeze (or twist) the tick. Sheesh! You said you pull it out at the head. How else does that commenter remove the nasty parasite?<br /><br />This is a recent topic on Pet Groomers Forum where someone posted the Center for Disease Control's removal recommendation. Sounds a lot like yours! One difference is the CDC recommends slowly pulling, instead of a quick pull.

I'll take this opportunity to tell you how much I've enjoyed your blog over the years. I've learned a lot. At one point I wanted to be a groomer. (One of my favorite jobs was as a vet assistant at Bide a Wee animal shelter on Long Island. I was able to deal with the dogs and cats and not have to deal with many humans at all.) Now, I don't think I'd go the grooming route. Extra hugs to you for doing it. I'm sure that the animals lives are much enriched by your loving care. :)Katiemseehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15710233856978953071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861555359944928813.post-73259449948815217602014-05-12T22:26:07.557-04:002014-05-12T22:26:07.557-04:00Wow!
