One of the cats threw up tonight and I found a roundworm in the vomit. I suspect Twinkie given his history of frequent dewormings before I adopted him. His last fecal exam in July was negative. But I understand roundworm larvae can remain in the body in a migrating and/or encysted state before they reach the G-I tract and grow into adult worms. I can't find any info on how long it could be before all the roundworms in his system have gone full cycle through his system and he's clean. Anybody know? I suppose I should probably just keeping deworming him periodically regardless of a negative fecal until I'm sure.
Off to the vet tomorrow for six doses of Drontal. :roll:
