Roundworms are one of the most common intestinal parasites for cats. Almost all cats will become infected with roundworms at some point in their lives, but roundworm occurs most often in kittens through milk-borne infection during nursing. Roundworms are not particularly harmful to adult cats but may cause life-threatening problems in kittens and older cats. Visit reptn.co/BQ4qwAceAAq for roundworm prevention options for your cat.
