Today worms in cats are one of the most common diseases. With this problem sooner or later faces every breeder. Eggs of helminths (or worms) can be in one of those places that you have chosen to walk, for example, in gardens, in yards, in parks and squares.
Naive is to believe that if your pet goes outside, the risk is minimised. The hosts can carry the eggs of parasites on the shoes or clothing in the house and, thereby, infect Pets. This implies that worms and kittens, these recently born babies – not such a rarity.
Your cat, cat or kitten can get sick by eating raw meat or fish, when meeting with people or animals with which, for example, came to you, your friends, or friends. And surely your pet, like all other cats, loves to hunt flies, because flies are carriers of worms and their larvae.
Worms in cats cause great harm to the body of the animal: reduced immunity, significantly the metabolism, even damaged internal organs.
If your kitten worms, you will be able to determine this probability, even by their appearance. Usually a little dull coat and poor appetite. Pet noticeably loses weight, weakens, and sometimes the situation is exacerbated by anaemia, and diarrhoea. By the way, signs of worms in cats are the same, but they helminthiasis occur often hidden. The exact diagnosis is put only after the detection of eggs of worms in the stool of an animal.

Every vet will agree that this is a special danger of worms in kittens. Sometimes they are so numerous that they can clog and in the end, to break the intestinal wall, leading to the inevitable death of the animal.
Also I would like to warn - in humans and Pets often there are common types of worms, so sick cats, cats, kittens or dangerous for people and especially for children.
Worms in cats
The Most common parasites in cats are the two types of worms: round worms (nematodes) and tapeworms (cestodes). Let us dwell on each of them.
Nematodes – small worms, the length of which can be 6 to 13 mm. They have the characteristic shape of the filament. These worms in cats are capable of attaching to the wall of the small intestine and feed on the blood of the host. Infected nematodes is possible through contact with infected soil or feces of other animals, which already contained larvae. In the body of a cat, the larvae immediately migrate to the lungs and only from there into the intestine. Two weeks later, the eggs of the worms appear in the stool.
Cestodes-tapeworms is affecting most adult cats. The body of the parasite resembles a thin, narrow strip of cloth and consists of a large number of segments, inside which the larvae develop. In turn, the segments in the faeces come out, so the infected by this type of parasites is enough simply to see with the naked eye.
Worms in cats: treatment and prevention
Treatment and prevention of worms is not less than 2 times a year. And it should not depend on the time of year, nor on walks if your pet is on the street.
Don't forget to banish worms and before each vaccination, otherwise the animal may begin severe complications. In that case, if you have a home inhabited by several animals, to give anthelmintic drug is best all at the same time. By the way, fleas are also considered vectors of some types of worms, so before giving an anthelmintic drug, will still see fleas.
As a rule, the course of de-worming should consist of a double dose of the drug with an interval of from ten days to two weeks. Why? – the fact that as yet there are no such drugs that would act on the larvae of the worms, so at one time you will not be able to cure the animal from parasites.
