Re: worming


they can be done at 2 weeks, but personally I leave them until they are 4 weeks.

Products from the vet are best and panacur paste is my preference.

Re: worming


I wouldn't think that you have to take the kittens in. You should be able to just collect the Panacur from the vets.

Re: worming


Yes, you should be able to buy it without the vet seeing the kittens, although some vets do insist on seeing the animals before prescribing any drugs, including routine ones like worming / flea control.
