Anyone want to hear a cat story that'll make them feel ill? Of course you do!

My cat Scabbers just came home with a worm hanging out his backside. Still wriggling. He's not due to be de-wormed for another month! I shrieked and tried quickly to pull on some disposable gloves and grab loo roll. When I got back in the sitting room he was licking his anus and happily swallowed the worm. Shock

This is the cat I let sleep on my pillow.

I will not sleep easy tonight. Sad

Off for a good wormer directly, I assume? (For all three of them.) Unless you have some in the drawer.

I have some thankfully, but they've all eaten tonight. Will have to do it tomorrow AM but it's a real ballache as Olive's obviously a different weight to the others so I have to shut her away to eat separately. Uggggggggggggggghhhhhhh

Maybe re-read this old thread started by Lone and steel yourself.

I guess you may have to up the frequency of dosing because you have quite a reservoir outside due to your circumstances. How often are they dosed at the moment ?

Oh God, just read the OP of that and can tell it's gonig to be a bad thread. Am going to read it fully though.
Currently theyre done every three months but Olive's only been done once because of her age. I'm not sure my wormer's that good actually. It's Johnsons, which isn't a brand I recognise... Maybe I should buy some new stuff.

How about online pharmacies? They might come out cheaper.
