Man or mouse?

Okay, so I'm not the best mouse catcher in the neighbourhood ........... but in my defence , I know a couple of Terriers and they're not too hot on the old hunting front either !!

And quite frankly, I think my mum and dad are pretty happy that I'm not the Linford Christie of the cat world. Mice carry things like worms and whether you own a cat or a dog, you'd rather we were slow coaches!

There are three types of tapeworms in dogs, only two in cats, and not all tapeworm medicines will kill all types.

Dipylidium is a common tapeworm, which can infest both cats and dogs and uses the flea as it’s intermediate host. Basically, the fleas eat the eggs of the tapeworm and then these fleas are swallowed by the dog or cat while they groom themselves. I know, it sounds disgusting, but we do have to clean ourselves !!

The flea (with the worm eggs inside it) is now in the cat or dog!! This is just one way a cat or dog can develop a worm infestation. It’s why it’s so important to worm us if we ever have fleas. A worm infestation can cause diarrhoea, constipation, anaemia or the obstruction of the bowel.

Cats and Dogs can become infected from a number of sources including:-

- Picking up worms from grass or soil in public places.
- Puppies can be born with worms of Toxocara canis if the mother is infected and the larvae have passed into the mother’s milk.
- hunting of mice, rats and other animals as they can act as intermediate hosts
