Whether it is abnormal for a pregnant cat to accidentally eat anthelmintics depends on the side effects of the drug and the number of days the cat has been pregnant.

If the anthelmintic drug has a relatively small impact on the fetus in the body, it will generally not affect the normal development of the fetus. Otherwise, the impact will be relatively large, which may easily lead to miscarriage if abnormalities occur. In addition, if a newly pregnant female cat takes deworming medicine, there is a possibility of miscarriage and malformation of the kittens. If the female cat is pregnant for a long time, it may be fine. Therefore, pregnant cats need to be closely observed and thoroughly inspected after accidentally ingesting anthelmintics.

What to do if a pregnant cat accidentally eats anthelmintics

1. Observe the cat after ingesting anthelmintics. If any abnormality occurs, it needs to be taken to a pet hospital for treatment in time.

2. Parasites have a great impact on cats. It is recommended that cats undergo internal and external deworming about two months before breeding to prevent cats from being infected with parasites during pregnancy.
