Well, I personally find tapeworms hard to mistake for anything else. Yuk! But I would also recomend a Vet for the worm medicine. It is hard to know which over the counter medicines are effective and/or safe. Some of them cause really bad cramps for the cat. That said if i could not afford a trip to the Vet, I would read the reviews on Amazon.com and pick a product.
Hello,
I am a retired Veterinary Manager and I would recommend you take a stool sample to your Vet's office and have them determine which worms your cat has.(there could be other types) The only medication you can get to rid her of the tapeworms is a prescription from your Vet. The name of the medication is Drontal. There is not a home remedy or over the counter medication you can buy. If your cat has tapeworms, she has fleas. Please use a topical flea product (like Advantage) on her every month.
my cat has tapeworms but no fleas so your answer would be wrong
Drontal can also be purchased on Amazon.
