Cat Wormers

Our current reccommendation is that kittens are wormed every 2-4 weeks up until 6 months of age and thereafter at least once every 3 months. Cats that hunt and kill mice and other prey may need to be wormed monthly throughout their lives.

Kittens with heavy infestations of intestinal roundworms (Toxacara species) may be slow growing, skinny with a pot belly and may have persistant diarrhoea or breathing problems. Whilst the worms themselves remain in the intestine, developing larvae can spread through other body tissues, forming cysts there which can hatch out sometimes years later when the cat is under physiological stress (illness or more commonly, pregnancy). This can then lead to active infection again.

In adulthood, it is rare to see health problems in the cat itself due to worm infestation, but they are capable of excreting infective roundworm eggs in their faeces. These can be a human health risk - it is estimated that up to a hundred children in the UK each year have eye problems due ingested worm larvae settling in the eye (the technical term is Ocular Larva Migrans), so we strongly advise regular worming even if your cat seems perfectly healthy.
