Worm infestations affect young cats with relative frequency. If untreated, they can lead to severe ailments. Thankfully though, parasites are very easy to combat as soon as the problem has been recognised. Some of the most common symptoms of worms in cats are: - Weight loss accompanied by a marked increase or decrease in appetite - Distended abdomen, or ‘pot-bellied’ appearance - Lethargy - Vomiting - Diarrhea/chronic soft stools
Kittens need initial deworming at 3 weeks of age, and every month for the first 6 months. Older kittens and cats can be dewormed as needed. A vet can deworm your cat, or you can purchase over the counter deworming medicines and give it at home(ask a vet for the prescription).
