Sounds a little difficult, medicines during pregnancy aren't really recommended, although some medicines can be safe. If you want to try de-worming her it's best you consult your vet first. You could also wait until the kittens are born and then try de-worming, which would be safer, but again, consult your vet beforehand just to be on the safe side.

Try not to worry too much, worms aren't usually especially harmful so your cat and kittens will be fine, and your vet should be able to give you any information you need on treating it safely.

Ultimately the best thing you can do is take her into a vet for an appointment. Worms are easily taken care of, but they'll have to be careful what they administer since she is pregnant.

As Alice said, in this kind of situation, only a vet can really help you. What we can do is tell you that worms are quite easily treatable, so don't worry too much. I'm not sure of the complexities when it comes to pregnancy and the health of the kitten, since I'm not a vet, but your vet will know, you know, since they're a vet. >.>


Chin up, 'kay? It'll be alright =).

Ah that's a shame to hear. Maybe try getting a small loan from the bank or use a credit card? I know it sucks to have to get credit out and stuff, but it's for important stuff like this that people first came up with the idea of credit.

Try finding a smaller family based vet that maybe could work out some payment details with you?


But in the end, the most important thing to accept is that no matter how alone you feel, how painful it may be, with the help of those around you, you'll get through this too.
