Hi guys! long time no see again, sorry I haven't been terribly active here! Miss you guys though! <3
Any who, I've come looking for advice.
Last October I took in 2 male kittens to help a friend whose grandmother threw her two (unspayed) female cats outside and they both got pregnant at the same time. (Infuriating, right?) :emb:
They both ended up giving birth within about 48 hours of each other, and each had 4 surviving kittens.
So I took 2, another person took one, and she and her grandmother have the rest.
My guys are now about 8 months or so and doing pretty well, but I think they have tapeworm.
So I have been doing some research and I plan to take them to the vet, but I heard some horror stories about cats reacting badly and sometimes even dying to over-the-counter medication. Obviously, this terrifies me.
So I am just wondering, does anyone have any advice before I take them in? Or has anyone here ever dealt with this before? Know any home remedies worth trying? I heard Coconut milk/juice, but I'm a little skeptical. :?
I should probably get myself checked too... I'm ALWAYS hungry.. :lol:
