Why Indoor Cats Still Need Flea and Worm Treatment

Indoor cats, despite their sheltered lives, are not immune to parasites. Fleas and worms can be contracted from various sources, even if a cat never goes outdoors. The Oaks Vet Centre highlights this in a recent video, explaining how a mother cat can pass worms to her kittens, even before birth. "Even indoor cats can pick up parasites," explains the veterinarian in the video, "through their mother, or even from things brought into the home." This underscores the importance of regular flea and worm treatment for all cats, regardless of their lifestyle. The video's clear and concise explanation makes it a valuable resource for cat owners. The lighthearted approach makes complex information accessible to a broader audience.
