How to control worms in cats
Intestinal worms in cats are very common, but it is often difficult to see if your cat has worms. Worms can be picked up from many places, such as when hunting and eating rodents, going near or eating other animals’ faeces, grooming and ingesting fleas. Cat worms can also be caused by humans entering the house, unwittingly carrying the odd flea or egg on clothing or shoes. This cat wormer works by killing worms that are in your cat’s gut, so to prevent worm reinfection, it is recommended to worm your cat regularly for both tape and round worms every three months.
How often should I worm my cat?
If your cat is a hunter, then they are more risk if they decide to eat the mice, rats, voles and anything else they manage to catch, so you may wish to consider worming your cat as frequently as every month.
Kittens can get worms from their mother’s milk and require more frequent worming. It is recommended that kittens are wormed every two weeks until they are eight weeks old. At eight weeks, they can be wormed monthly until six months old and then this can be reduced to every three months. For pregnant and nursing cats, it’s recommended to worm at the end of the pregnancy and once when kittens are feeding on their mother’s milk.
Controlling worms is only part of protecting your pet and your family against harmful parasites. Provide your pet with effective flea and worm treatments regularly, to combat external parasites such as fleas and internal parasites like the roundworm Toxocara canis that can be passed to humans. Regular treatments help to keep your pet and your family healthy and pest free.

Keeping your Cat worm free
Worm Solutions for Cats
Worms, including roundworms, tapeworms and hookworms, are very common in cats, particularly those that spend time outdoors or enjoy hunting birds and mice. Cats can also pick up worms from infected fleas during grooming, which is why regular worming is an important part of routine pet care.
Available in an easy-to-give tablet format, worming tablets for cats can be given directly into the mouth or with a small amount of food if needed.
How Worming Tablets Support Cats
These worming treatments are designed to help protect cats by:
- Treating roundworms, tapeworms and hookworms
- Helping remove worms living in the gut
- Supporting regular parasite control as part of routine pet care
Some products are also commonly used alongside flea treatments, as fleas and tapeworms share a life cycle, so if cats have one they may also have the other.
When to Consider Worming Tablets
Worming tablets may be helpful for:
- Outdoor cats that hunt birds or rodents
- Cats with flea problems
- Multi-cat households
- Regular worm prevention as part of routine care
Kittens can also pick up worms from their mother and may need more frequent worming when they are young.
Important to Know
Worming tablets should only be used as directed and are not suitable for all cats. Do not use in kittens under 6 weeks old or weighing less than 1kg. Please weigh your cat carefully before use to ensure the correct dose is given. Regular flea treatment and routine worming can help reduce the risk of reinfestation.
