Hi all,
I have 3 cats and will be treating them all for hookworms, as 1 tested positive and it is contagious through poo. I asked my vet if I should scrub the litter boxes and put in new litter and I'm confused what he really meant by his answer. He said to clean them daily for at least a week and to wipe the cats paws daily as well. I don't know if "clean" means removing the poo from the boxes (which I already do twice a day) or if he meant to scrub out the boxes and put new litter each day. I'm assuming he means clean as in scooping, I hope thats all it is.
Any insight would help. Thanks!
