CATDOLL : When should cats be dewormed?

Cats can be dewormed after they are three months old. It is recommended to deworm cats once a month when they are young, and once every three months when they are adults. Internal parasites generally include roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, etc. Once infected, cats can easily suffer from diarrhea, weight loss, mental depression, etc. Therefore, it is very important to prevent parasitic infections, and it is recommended that owners deworm cats regularly.

What should you pay attention to when deworming cats?

1. Pay attention to the cat's feces after deworming. A few days after deworming, dead parasites and eggs will generally be excreted with the feces. If diarrhea occurs, it is best to consult a doctor.

2. Do not use flea collars for external deworming. Most flea collars are made of dichlorvos, which is highly toxic and very harmful to cats.

3. The dosage of cat anthelmintics. Anthelmintics are toxic, so you must feed them according to the instructions, especially for domestic anthelmintics. You must weigh the cat before using the medicine and calculate the dosage according to the weight. Sometimes there will be a lot of medicine left. If you think it is a waste, you can feed it to stray cats.
