Is there an effective liquid wormer/flea/tick treatment?

[Cattymonster]

Hello all,

Now that my monster is eating liquid thyroid meds in Lickylix (whoop!) I'm wondering whether there's an effective liquid wormer. Catty won't take pills from me and so he has to go to the vet for his wormer. It would be wonderful to be able to give it to him at home instead!

He has flea/tick treatment dabbed onto his neck by me, but he's difficult even with that. Is there also an effective liquid alternative to this?

Fingers crossed :)

We use something called Dronspot. It’s a liquid contained in individual pipettes. You use it in exactly the same way as the spot on flea treatment. Part puss’s fur and apply the pipette contents directly onto the skin, where it’s absorbed. Our mog isn’t happy about the spot on flea treatments either, but we use the single dose pipettes so it’s all over in a couple of minutes. We opted for the same type in wormer because it’s just easier than getting a pill down him - we’ve even tried wrapping it in tasty titbits, but he always manages to eat the treat and spit out the pill !! Good luck.

Thanks @Rosscameasdoody x

Just found a link where you can have a look at the details and order.x

We use Dronspot on our cat. She is an avid hunter (or is when she isn’t recuperating from a broken pelvis) and consumer of 🐭 delicacies and the wormer seems to be doing the trick. Very easy to apply.

We've always used spot ons for ours and have never had a problem. I just catch them when they're sleeping

I get one from my vet, can't remember, think I've had a couple of different ones, but I get the drops for their neck that are combined worm/flea treatments.

Thanks for the suggestions, all. I forgot to say that I don't give him the drops onto his neck for the wormer as he had a very bad skin reaction to it a couple of times (though that was quite a number of years ago now). He's ok with the one we now use for just fleas and ticks.

Felpreva does everything I think, as a spot on. It's expensive - but lasts 3 months so less hassle than doing fleas and worms separately every month.

However if your cat has had a bad reaction to a spot on it might not be worth trying. One of ours can't have it although he's fine with just the flea spot ons. The others are fine with Felpreva.

I'd ask your vet - maybe he could tolerate a different brand?

What about Panacur? That's a liquid and can be mixed in with their food.
