Well, i'm not 100% sure it was her. It could've been my calico cat, or maybe even one of my kittens. either way, i'm extremely concerned about this. Now, I know I have to get all my pets dewormed but that's going to be extremely expensive considering I own 6 cats and a puppy. Though that's not my main concern. I'm concerned about my momma cat. If she is the one who threw up these worms, then would that affect her kittens? I only ask because my cat is still nursing her kittens and I don't want them to also get worms.

Yes if momma has worms babies have worms It’s actually not expensive for the medicine from the veterinarian. You can call the human society sometimes they will give you the medicine for free. But make sure you tell them it’s for kittens. some meds can be too strong for kittens. There is also carecredit.com you can apply for that as a credit card and use it towards veterinary office bills. I see people use it all the time at the vets office. It’s just nature - you can’t help it if momma has worms they nurse and catch it. But it’s very easy to get rid of once the medicine is given. Just have to check the stool a few times. Also maybe you can call animal welfare league they sometimes gives money to people for their pets and rescue groups definetly help out tool don’t despair make phone calls. Glad you’re taking such good care of the momma and her babies so nice to have people like you love animals!
