My puppy had worms because she didn't get dewormed. I would talk to my vet to see when was the soonest I could get my puppies dewormed. If you wait to long they will really suffer. I would prediced that the are to get dewormed by the time they start walking and everything. Hope this helps.

Kittens will need to be dewormed several times. The first time should be around three weeks of age, and then repeated at around weeks five, seven, and nine. Then you can adopt the same schedule as you would for an adult cat.

Yes! Cats, kittens especially, should be wormed regularly. Generally speaking, kittens should be wormed every three months, or however often as advised by your vet.

Worming is a very important in terms of kitten care. Roundworms and Tapeworms are the most common and can be picked up from fleas, passed from the mother, or from infected wildlife. These intestinal parasites can leave a kitten starved of nutrients if left untreated, which can result in death.

If you are unsure what wormer to use or how often to use it, please contact your local vet. The more effective wormer can be bought from a vet practice, sometimes requiring a prescription. Some cheaper worming treatment brands found in superstores or pet stores are often not very effective in treating the problem.

When you go to buy cat dewormer the box says when they should be dewormed. They should be at least six months old.

A kitten will need to have it's first worming treatment done at 8 weeks old along with it's first set of shots. A second treatment should follow at 12 weeks with it's second set of shots.

Kittens can be wormed as early as 8 weeks. Before that, the medicine is too toxic for their tiny bodies. The vet prescribes the dose of med based on each kitten's weight.
