Parasites can appear in cats while eating rodents, raw fish, and swallowing flies. A helminthic disease, left without treatment, will turn into a chronic form and lead the animal's body to complete exhaustion.
Instructions
Step 1
Give your adult pet regular deworming at least twice a year. Do not forget that worms should also be driven away before any vaccination, but not earlier than 10 - 14 days before it. Otherwise, your pet can get serious complications.
Step 2
Before proceeding with the expulsion of worms, make sure that the cat or the room does not have fleas that are carriers of some types of worms. If more than one animal lives in your home, then give the anthelmintic drug to all pets at the same time.
Step 3
Now there are many medicines aimed at eliminating helminths, among them Dirofen, Febtal, Drontal, Panakur, Tsistal - Cat. Only purchase medications to treat your pets at specialized pet stores, avoiding stalls and markets where you are likely to be sold a fake.
Step 4
Seek help from a competent specialist who will help you choose the right course of treatment for your animal and tell you how to help him recover. When banishing worms with drugs, strictly follow the rules specified in the instructions and do not exceed the indicated dosage.
Step 5
To give your cat the medication, wrap it in a towel, as it is likely to protest the procedure. Do not try to administer the medicine with a spoon, but rather take a syringe without a needle. This way you can measure the exact dose of the medication and give it to your pet little by little.
Step 6
While talking tenderly to your cat, extend your hand over its head and place your index finger and thumb behind the canines. Press in these places and the animal will open its mouth. Insert the tip of the syringe into the corner of your mouth and inject the medicine. Let the cat close its mouth. Pivot his nose toward the ceiling and stroke the throat area so that he swallows the medicine.
Step 7
Practice shows that a single dose of the drug is not enough. The fact is that anthelmintics destroy only adult parasites, and their eggs, being resistant, remain in the body after deworming. Therefore, with the established fact of helminthic invasion, it is necessary to carry out two treatments with an interval of 10 days. It is by this time that immature individuals appear from the eggs, which are still incapable of laying their own eggs.
Step 8
After giving the drug, place the pet in a confined space and leave it there for up to three days. So you can collect and destroy the removed parasites and prevent them from spreading over the surrounding area.
