A couple of weeks ago one of my cats had tape worms. I called my vet and they were closed. So I called my back up vet. The vet there said my other cats could not get them. I want to know is this true? I wanted to treat all of my cats and the vet said I did not have to because it was a tape worm not round worms.
Now one of my other cats has tape worms. I am so mad! We are going to the vet tommrow.
Can someone tell me if what I was told is true or not? Also can someone tell me how cats get tape worms? I was told they get it by eating an infected flea or from mice? My cats are indoor and I do not have mice. Also they are treated with Advantage every month. We have lots of ladybugs in our home could the cats get worms from eating a ladybug?
Thanks for the help.
