Everyone knows cats and dogs should be wormed regularly, if only because: "the vet said so". But it's easy to get complacent. After all, worms found in the UK rarely cause visible illness in pets. And if your dog looks healthy, why spend hard-earned money on something as mundane as a wormer?
The reason is simple. Worms carried by cats and dogs pose a health risk, not just to your pet and your family, but to other people and animals.
This site describes the different worms that the UK's pets are at risk from, and the harm they can cause. We hope it explains why money spent on a veterinary wormer is money well spent.
