Well, I suspected my kitten Lusa was wormy because of her bloated tummy...Lusa went to the vet today for her itchy ears and a fecal exam. She has coccidia and roundworms.
There were no mites present in her ears, but my husband and I have been cleaning them with Epi-Otic fluid for the last three days.
The vet applied Revolution to get rid of the fleas, worms, and any possible leftover mites. He also sent us home a wormer for Lusa (and my dog Stockey) to take in a week. He gave us a tube of Virbac Lysine gel to boost her immunity.
How long does it usually take to get rid of worms? Should I feed her more to support her recovery? What are the usual protocols for sanitizing her litter box and living space for worms?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
