Ticks: They are more common in summer and can easily cause anemia in cats. They can also cause many zoonotic diseases, such as tick-borne diseases and Lyme disease.

Lice: Cause skin inflammation, which may lead to hair loss or cat lice in severe cases.

Roundworms: They are mostly parasitic on young cats, which will cause the cat’s abdomen to become enlarged, the mucous membranes to be pale, the cat’s appetite to continue to decrease, the cat to lose weight and vomit, the cat’s growth and development will be hindered, and in severe cases, the cat will die from malnutrition.

1. Kittens under two months old are not suitable for deworming, but sprays can be used.

I just picked up my little dog, he is probably only 1 month old. He is so thin and small that he is covered in fleas. He cannot be kept at home without deworming. The pet doctor recommended Fulien. I sprayed it twice, and within a day, it stopped scratching. Laifu's body didn't show any abnormality, so it was quite safe.

2. Cats over two months old are suitable for most cat anthelmintic drugs. You need to pay attention to the dosage according to the weight.

Now that Laifu has gained 10 pounds, I use Bioline for him, which can kill fleas, ticks, lice, roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms and other common internal and external parasites. Unlike the previously used Dapai, Ai Walker, which are used in the guise of internal and external deworming, they actually need to be combined with internal deworming medicine, which is really troublesome. There is no need to combine other cat anthelmintic drugs with Bioline. One drug can deal with common internal and external parasites in cats, which is very convenient. This anthelmintic medicine comes in two specifications, within 2.5kg and 2.5~7.5kg. You can choose according to your owner’s weight!
