CATDOLL : How many months old should a kitten be dewormed?

How many months old should a kitten be dewormed?

Generally, cats can be dewormed when they are over 6 weeks old. This is because cats under 6 weeks old are less likely to be exposed to and infected with parasites. In addition, cats under 6 weeks old have a more fragile gastrointestinal tract, which is not fully functional, and more sensitive skin. Oral deworming and external deworming drugs are more likely to cause damage to the cat's gastrointestinal tract or skin.

Vaccination time for kittens:

Kittens can start to get the cat triple vaccine after they are two months old. They can get the rabies vaccine after they are three months old. Because the maternal antibodies in cats are basically gone after two months, if you take them for vaccination at this time, you can avoid the maternal antibodies offsetting the effect of the vaccine. It should be noted that after the kittens are vaccinated, they also need to be boosted with a booster vaccine every year, a cat triple plus a rabies shot, with an interval of about eleven months.
