about 6 weeks ago i noticed moving white seasame seed shaped things on her faeces. I figured this was tapeworm and i wormed her and my other cat with a worming tablet that said it covered tape worm. About 24 hours later the worm came out, quite skinny and about 12inch long. Tonight i noticed the same seasame seed shaped things on her faeces, how is this possible? i have never had a worm problem with her before %26 the tablet said it covered them for 3 months! was this tapeworm? can i worm her again so soon?
Answers:
It is possible that she could have been reinfected and you will have to treat her again. When we have fosters we treat them with either Strongid which is given in 3 doses or we have also used Drontal which is a one dose pill and then we wait 2 weeks after giving and take a fecal sample into the vets to see if it is clear of worms. If it is not, we treat again and then test again.
