Yes, the cat will eventually starve as the worms will start to consume the nutrients in the cat. Deworming medicine costs about $5 for a bottle from walmart/walgreens. Do the kittens a favor and pick up a bottle for your friend. It only takes about a weeks worth of treatment poured onto food to clear the worms up. She should be careful, worms can be passed to humans and other pets, it is not a comfortable feeling either....

you may purchase benefit on your cat and positioned it on the older one. that could be a liquid you positioned on the decrease back of their neck as quickly as a month in the event that they have fleas.it additionally will kill the flees on the kitten and eliminate the fleas interior the abode. I somewhat have a cat it is extremely sickly and has bronchial asthma so i'm no longer able to manage her yet I manage the others and it somewhat works on her too. the floor that sloughs off the cats additionally maintains to be around killing any on the abode. that is oftentimes stable for a million month then you definately ought to reapply. so a great way as de-worming it relies upon on how old the kitten is while she grew to become into dealt with and how many cases because of the fact the typical scientific look after worms must be repeated after 10 says. locate out from the vet you're taking the older cat to whether you need to manage her yet first it would be a stable theory to make certain from the place to procure the kitten what she grew to become into dealt with with, what share cases and while.. The benefit is for the older cat and not for the kitten you positioned it on the older cat and the fleas leaping on the older cat would be killed besides as those interior the abode and your kittens fleas additionally would be eradicated as fleas do no longer stay on the cayts yet interior the abode.
