animal people - specifically cats

Do you get your cats dewormed regularly? My girls are indoor babies, and I'm not sure if its really necessary to get them dewormed.

I had ollie dewormed when I first got him and haven't since. He was born outside, but is an indoor cat now. Once in a while I take him out, but not for long and not often.

miss you, mima. can't wait for tomorrow!

Mine is an indoor cat and I dont. I dont think you have to if they dont go out. I will de-tooth her if she bites my face one more time though.

Re: animal people - specifically cats

No you don't have to do that regularly. It's only if you find them outside.

Re: animal people - specifically cats

My cat came from Walmart

I haven't had him dewormed and he is strictly indoors.

Re: animal people - specifically cats

I had an indoor cat for 15 years and never had her dewormed. She lived a long healthy life.

Sharron70 Posted: May 29, 2008 07:21 PM

Re: animal people - specifically cats

Nope - mine are all indoor. The only one I ever had de-wormed was my mooshu (rip little buddy ) but that was because he was an abandoned street-kitty.

Re: animal people - specifically cats

Thanks girls. I got the postcard in the mail that all 3 are due, but thats $$$. Also, Mima gets very upset when I take her in the car, and it sometimes brings on an asthma attack. I'd prefer to avoid that!

Re: animal people - specifically cats

When you have an indoor cat you don't need to, unless they actually have worms.

Re: animal people - specifically cats

I have three indoor cats and do not get them dewormed as I don't think it is necessary...I could be wrong but they are 4 1/2 and 3 1/2 and there have not been any problems.

Re: animal people - specifically cats

Lulu is indoor and she was dewormed when she was like 3 months. I haven't done it since then because she's indoors. You could ask the vet...although they might tell you that you have to and charge you. Good luck!
