The two types of worms that most commonly affect cats are tapeworms and roundworms. These parasites can pose serious health risks to your cat if left untreated. It's essential to worm your cat every three months to eradicate existing infestations and prevent new ones from occurring.
Wormers are reactive medicines that only kill worms, eggs, and larvae that are present in your cat's system. They do not prevent new infestations. Cats that roam outdoors or hunt are particularly susceptible to worm infestations, making regular treatment essential.
In addition to worm treatments, don't forget to protect your cat from fleas and ticks. Browse our selection of flea and tick treatments to keep your cat free from external parasites and ensure comprehensive protection against common pests.

It's crucial to consult your veterinarian before administering any medications, including wormers, to a pregnant cat.
How often should I worm my cat?
The frequency of worming depends on various factors, including your cat's lifestyle, risk of exposure to parasites, and the type of worms prevalent in your area.
