Bayer Tapeworm Dewormer (praziquantel tablets) for Cats, 3-Count Praziquantel Tablets for Cats and Kittens 6 Weeks and Older : Pet Supplies

Description

Your cat can get infected with tapeworms in their own home if their cat and dog friends are also infected with fleas. Spending time outside in the grass, dirt and garden can make your cat vulnerable to fleas carrying tapeworm eggs. Fleas on rodents and other wildlife can carry tapeworms, which can infect your cat if the flea is ingested. Because there's no prescription required, you can act fast to remove tapeworm from your cat as soon as you see the signs. If your cat is feeling finicky, you can hide the tablet in their favorite treat or tasty pill pouch. Tablets can be crumbled up and mixed with your cat’s food for easier dosing. If your cat has had fleas, there’s a chance they have tapeworms too. Tapeworm segments look similar to grains of white rice and are visible when stuck in your cat’s hair under the tail or by the back legs or in their poop. It’s not always obvious that your cat has tapeworms, so the best way to identify a problem is through an exam performed by a veterinarian. Use Bayer Tapeworm Dewormer for Cats to treat your pet. Cats' everyday grooming behavior puts them at risk for ingesting fleas, which means a risk of tapeworms. Fleas can carry immature tapeworms, and they are the main source of tapeworm infections in cats. A cat that has been infested by fleas may develop tapeworms. Outdoor cats that hunt small rodents may be at risk of infection from tapeworms as well. In addition to treating with tapeworm dewormer, take steps to control fleas and rodents on the premises in order to prevent reinfection; Otherwise another round of the tapeworm dewormer for cats will be necessary. This is especially true in cases of tapeworms transmitted by fleas where reinfection is almost certain to occur if fleas are not removed from the animal and its environment. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in the diagnosis, treatment and control of parasitism. Keep away from children.
