How long it takes for a cat to lick its fur after spraying anthelmintics depends on the type of anthelmintic used by the owner. If it is an external anthelmintic in drops, you can usually lick the fur about 15-30 minutes after use. If you use a spray external anthelmintic, you generally need to wait until the cat's hair is dry before licking it. In addition, it is best not to bathe the cat within 2-3 days after the cat is dewormed.

What to pay attention to when deworming cats:

1. The dosage of cat deworming medicine. Anthelmintic drugs are toxic, so you must feed them according to the instructions on the instructions, especially for domestic anthelmintic drugs. You must weigh the cat before using the drug, and calculate the dosage based on the weight. Sometimes there will be a lot of medicine left. If you feel it is a waste, you can feed it to stray cats.

2. Cats should be dewormed regularly, about once a month. Cats are the final host of many parasites. Depending on the type of parasite, the growth cycle may be half a month, or even as short as a week, so deworming once a month is absolutely necessary.

3. Pay attention to the cat’s mental state after deworming. After deworming, some cats with weak stomachs and poor physical constitution will have symptoms such as vomiting, lack of energy and even fever. Generally, these symptoms will get better in 1 to 2 days. If this situation persists for several days, it is best to go to the hospital for treatment. Consult a doctor.
