De-worming for cats

[ilovecats22]

Hi to u all!
I really love pets and I’ve being interested in animal all my life !
I have 2 dogs : T-bone & Rex and a cat for the last 2 years who’s name is Robert. lately Robert has been having worms, (is it possible that he got it from the neighbor’s dog or other dogs and cats???)
I want to the vet and he gave me some de-worming pills for him. I tried to crumble the tablet into his food but he notice it right away.
I tried wrapping it with some sausage but he refuse to swallow it .
I even tried using force but Robert kept scratching and twirling!!!
what can I do ??

you can open your cat’s mouth an try putting it on his tongue and make
him swallow it or you can try some websites than sales all kings of medicines of cats and dogs but one seems very sufficient ‘cause it’s wrapped in dry food and in different flavors
you should try it...

when I use worm medicine for my cats I always take just a small amount of canned cat food (that way I know they get it all) and break it up into the food and mix it right in, I never have a problem this way.

Don’t forget to deworm your cat twice a year, or even more if it has fleas: indeed, the presence of fleas in the digestive tract increases the risk of intestinal occlusion related to the formation of hair balls.

Thanks for the information guys, I was aware of this, but I did not know that they had to be de-wormed twice a year, that sure explains alot, I just go by what the vet says.

if you keep them indoors they don't need it as much.

Raw food diets can sometimes give worms.
