How often should I get my indoor cat dewormed?

[]

Answer

Even indoor cats can be susceptible to worms, often from fleas, consuming infected prey (like mice), or through contaminated soil tracked inside. The frequency of deworming depends on your cat's lifestyle and risk factors. Generally, kittens require more frequent deworming. For adult indoor cats with minimal outdoor exposure, many vets recommend deworming every 6 to 12 months. However, if your cat hunts or you have other pets that go outdoors, more frequent treatment might be necessary. Your veterinarian can recommend a tailored deworming schedule and product based on a fecal test. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
