:) :) :) But, I gave medicine to my two resident cats at the same time, and no worms came out, only the foster has them, and they were more likely to catch them than us humans. I’ll still make an appointment with the paediatrician, but if the felines are safe I guess that so are we.

The medicine I am giving my cats is for about 10 different kinds of parasites, among others the above mentioned Toxocara cati. What I found online for humans also acts for different types of worms. The medicine from Walgreens probably kills both types of parasites. But from what I gather they...

I found that Latin name for pinworm is Enterobius vermicularis, and these cat roundworms are Toxocara cati, so they should not be the same species. Also, toxocara cant reach adulthood in humans and cannot lay eggs, therefore human to human infection is not possible, while with pinworms that’s...

OMG! I am glad and pretty much reassured now that I read someone’s experience, I’m sorry you didn’t have pills available at the time, I found online that there are pills now against cat roundworms for humans... that shouldn’t be as painful to ingest

Thanks for your reply. Well, that was exactly what I wanted, but since I don’t know what are the chances I didn’t want to be silly if chances are low that we got them. I ask this because I read that they’d can have eggs in their anus, and smear them on whatever surface they come in contact with...

I am sorry if this has already been discussed, but I can’t find any info on this. I found roundworms in one of cats poop, did the treatment, a lot more came out, now I am very worried about us humans of the house, especially about my 7-year-old daughter. We have no boundaries with cats, we kiss...

All you can do is try and see how it goes. Sad thing is they don’t understand it’s money thing and not your not loving them, he is probably trying to blackmail you by not eating, poor thing. Try going back to all dry and see how it goes. My cat won’t go anywhere beer kibble, as if the bowl was...

It’s another thing to have a lot of barn cats, and quite another to have a lot of house cats, confined to a single room. In a barn you don’t clean the litter box several times a day after 4, 5, 6 or day 7 cats (if you let them breed). I dare you to let a litterbox for a day and a half uncleaned...

I recently read a post here about a similar problem. Someone sugested to check whether the litter company changed the composition and changing the brand actually solved the problem. The poster also had other cats who had no issues, just this one cat.

If you neuter him before he reaches puberty, he will continue to grow for a little longer and be a bit larger than he normally would but that’s all. It has something to do with cartilage I think but I am not sure, maybe someone has more info on that. I was having the same dilema recently and was...

This. And, if the queen gets pregnant AGAIN before the babies are weened, and with the male cat around it will probably happen, you will have another 3 or 4 kittens to spay/neuter. That is a lot of money. In Spain it’s 85€ neuter and around double for spay. And if you sell them before having...

Hello everyone! This is a 6 month old post, but I was wondering, what colouring the kittens developed? Maybe share some pics if you have any?

Thanks!

Thanks, but I live in Spain (maybe Catalonia shortly I don't know there is some serious business going on over here at the moment) I will talk to the vet and explain. No, she is not vaccinated they don't vaccinate before 2 months old, I have an appointment for next Wednesday, she'll be two...

I don't think it will be safe for her to wait that long, my living room and bedroom have doors that are open February to November almost all the time, only in winter with the heating on I make sure I am not heating the streets :) She doesn't go beyond the doorsteps for now (she only accompanies...
