Last week, on Thursday, I got a 10 week old kitten from the vet's office. They said she had been de-wormed. Last Friday, I gave her Revolution to go ahead and kick any ear mites or fleas that she may have had. The Revolution works for all worms. Tonight, as I was taking a bath, she was using her litterbox which I keep in the bathroom. She jumped out of the box, and a piece of poop flew out of the box with her and landed on the bath mat. I got a piece of toilet paper and picked the poop up and saw what was either tapeworm eggs or tapeworm segments in the poop. Now, I am terrified thinking that she is infested. She has no fleas, and is an indoor cat in a meticulously kept home. Could this just be the worms dead or what? Nothing was moving in the poop. How long should it take for them to pass out of her system if they are dying or dead from the Vet's medicine plus my Revolution? Surely they couldn't survive all that?
