Cats are susceptible to roundworm, hookworm and tapeworm infections. They can become infected through contact with other cats, the environment generally or, most commonly in kittens, from their mother at birth. We recommend using a good quality allwormer product such as Drontal.
Kittens should be treated:
- Every 2 weeks until 3 mtgs age
- Then monthly until 6 months age
- Then every 3 months for life
Intestinal worms can also infect humans especially children so we strongly recommend ongoing intestinal worm control.
