Roundworms, Tapeworms, Lungworms, Hookworms and Whipworms can all affect dogs and cats.
Some are a potential hazard to your family’s health.
Statistics show that 60% of all cats in the UK have worms at any one time.
Worm treatments do not have a preventative action - they only eliminate the worms present at the time of treatment. Regular dosing is necessary to keep your pet healthy and worm free and prevent them from contaminating the environment with eggs and the dose is dependent on the weight of your pet.
It is therefore important for vets to weigh your pet regularly to ensure he is receiving the correct dose.
