The feral cat who lives in my garden had kittens 8-9 weeks ago. I've finally caught the kittens and they are living in my closed in porch, waiting for an adoption event on Saturday. Fingers crossed they find new homes!
Anyway, of the two, one acts like a typical kitten and the other is very shy and quiet and not playful. I sometimes see him playing with his sister through the window, but he's still pretty timid around me. He eats just a little and does not use the litter box. He pees on the floor. I'm worried he needs to be dewormed and the sooner the better. Is there an OTC treatment I can use? I can't really afford the $175 each for a kitten exam plus meds for them. I have 3 samples of Frontline Plus the kittens under 5lbs left over from Pepper. It says for kittens over 8 weeks and I'm pretty sure they are right at 8 now. I haven't used it on them yet. Would that help? I'm nervous to adopt out a potentially ill baby.
