worming

[wendilla]

my daughter has just had 2 kittens they are 7 weeks old how old must they be to start worming them .

[lankeela]

If they have never been wormed, or this is unknown, then they should be done immediately, as worms can severely debilitate a young kitten and even kill them. Get a kitten worming syrup from the pet shop and follow the instructions on the bottle. You could also get some tablets from the vet, but if the syrup is used correctly this should do the job, unless they are really riddled with them. You can tell this if they have a 'pot bellied ' appearance and a 'stary' coat.

[wendilla]

TO SMUDGE I have read this answerbank long enough to know who gives genuine answers.This question was put up for a reply not a sarcastic remark.I can understand now why chatterbank was removed .

To LANKEELA thank you for your reply didn't know about the syrup as that would be better as they are so young. thanks again.

Oh for God's sake wendilla - I am not by nature a sarcastic person! It just tickled me & I thought it might do the same to you, but obviously not.

Marycat's remarks were very sarcastic, but I didn't feel that mine were. What a misery guts!

[smudge]

Even though marycat was only joking too!

[wendilla]

Smudge I have seen 2 comments on AB suggestions that you have made about the answer I put back to your answer.At least marycat said she was joking.You seem to follow people around making remarks and using it like an answer bank and I do have a sense of humour .

Hi Smudge - I thought exactly the same as you when I read the above question!

Great minds think alike hey?

hahahahahahaha - I thought it was funny anyway!

[smudge]

Thank you so much KateMerrills - glad to see someone else read the question as I did. There's no pleasing some people! I meant no harm, but it's patently obvious that wendilla had it in for me! Ne'er mind, I've plenty of people who think otherwise!

Sorry wendilla - didin't quite understand the frist sentence in that answer?

I had no intention of upsetting you at all, my post was meant as humorous & tonque in cheek - but it fell on deaf ears!

Anyway, life's too short to be miserable - the sun's out & we're off out into the garden to enjoy listening to the birds! Have a lovely weekend!

Good for you Smudge!

[lizwizz]

I thought it was funny too Smudge and I have found your replies in the past to be very sensitive and helpful. What is life if we can't have a giggle every so often - at ourselves as well!

[smudge]

Thank you very much for your kind words lizwizz.

Glad you thought the same as Kate & myself.

(Sorry this is late, have only just got in)
