How to deworm cats?

Egyptian cats (details)

Insect repellent for cats can not only ensure the health of cats, but also protect the health of breeders. Parasites and fleas on cats can be transmitted to breeders through the environment, especially cats whose owners feed improperly and often live on meat, which has great hidden dangers. Therefore, it is necessary for everyone to repel insects inside and outside the cat.

I. Types of pesticides

Insecticides for cats are generally divided into in vivo and in vitro. The commonly used pesticides in cats are Miaoba, Bayer and Dapite. The common insect repellent for cats in vitro is Freyne. All the above are imported anthelmintics. Of course, you can also use domestic broad-spectrum insect repellent. However, I think that although the price of imported insect repellent is a bit expensive, cats only eat it once a year, and it is still guaranteed to eat imported insect repellent. After all, insect repellent is poisonous, and if it is used improperly, there will be tragedies.

Second, the dosage of cat repellent

Insect repellent is poisonous, so you must feed it according to the instructions, especially the domestic insect repellent. Be sure to weigh the cat before use and calculate the dosage according to the weight. Sometimes there is a lot of medicine left. If you feel wasteful, you can feed the stray cats.

Third, the preparation of cats before and after deworming

Cats should take a bath before deworming in vitro, and then apply the insect repellent on the back of the cat's neck where it can't be licked. Don't bathe the cat until the insect repellent is ineffective. Cats should eat for 3-4 hours and then fast for 5-6 hours after feeding insect repellent to ensure the efficacy.

Fourth, in vitro deworming must not be used in the kind of bath water.

A friend once asked me about deworming in vitro, and I asked him to buy Fren drops. But he didn't buy it, so he listened to the shop assistant and bought an insect repellent that was added to the water to bathe the cat. After he used it, he came to consult me. I immediately realized that this insect repellent could not be used, but it was too late. His cat died of poisoning.

Cat's skin structure is very special, toxic substances can penetrate into the body through the skin, and cats have the habit of licking hair, so if you use that kind of insect repellent, it will lead to cat poisoning and death.

5. Don't use flea collars for external deworming.

Most flea collars are made of dichlorvos, which are highly toxic and do great harm to cats.

Sixth, pay attention to observe the feces of cats after deworming.

A few days after anthelmintics, dead parasites and eggs are usually excreted with stool. If diarrhea occurs, it is best to consult a doctor.

Seven, pay attention to observe the mental state of the cat after insect repellent.

After deworming, some cats with poor stomach and constitution will have symptoms such as vomiting, listlessness and even fever. Generally 1~2 days can improve this symptom. If this happens for several days, you'd better consult a doctor.
