How many months old should a kitten be dewormed?
Generally, cats can start deworming when they are over 6 weeks old. Because cats under 6 weeks old are less likely to be exposed to and infected with parasites, and the gastrointestinal tract of cats under 6 weeks old is relatively fragile, their functions are not yet complete, and their skin is relatively sensitive. Oral internal deworming and external deworming are recommended. Drugs have a high probability of causing damage to the cat's gastrointestinal tract or skin.
Time to vaccinate kittens:
Kittens can start receiving the triple cat vaccine after they are two months old. Rabies vaccination can be given after three months. Because maternal antibodies in cats basically disappear after two months, taking them for vaccination at this time can prevent maternal antibodies from counteracting the effect of the vaccine. It should be noted that after the kittens are vaccinated, they also need to receive a booster vaccine every year. One dose of three doses of cat vaccine plus one shot of rabies, with an interval of about eleven months.
