Worming a pregnant Cat
I have just bought some Panicure for kittens to worm the pair of
Tinkers that I have here (kittens!) I decided to try it because it looked like an easy way of dosing each kitty, which it was. I also have a pregnant mummy cat who looks like she has about a week to go before she has her litter, & I would dearly Love to worm her to give her kittens a chance, However after reading the back of the packet and the instructions, it tells me to give a graduation of the syringe per kilo of weight. What it doesn't explain is whether this applies to pregnant queens as well. does anyone know for sure so that I can worm her as quickly as possible. I figure that if it is ok to give to kittens, it must be ok to give to the mother. Is this correct? |

Is this correct? you can use panacur to worm kittens you can get either sachets or oral solution (in uk) and they can be given to queens |

Is this correct? you can use panacur to worm kittens you can get either sachets or oral solution (in uk) and they can be given to queens Thank you. The problem with the paste in the syringe is that there are no instrucitons, & the mother is a feral, so I probably won't get the chance to simply treat the kittens themselves. I was hoping to get her done before the birth. I guess I am going to have to try & get some of the granules & try & feed her separately instead. ( I have no idea how, but it is worth a go.) Thanks for the advice) Sheelagh |
