My two kittens got worms, gotta take 'em to the vet here in a bit else according to the vet they have a chance of dying within the next 24 hours. They're puking up two and three worms at a time all over the place.
From what I've read the worms can be transferred to humans, and the egg larvae can be shed through their fur where they sleep. They both sleep in bed with us every night. Under the covers and by our heads. On top of that I bite Dennis (male cat) on the neck and Molly (girl cat) licks me a lot. Past couple days my stomach has kind of hurt and I've been eating a lot but still hungry. Two signs of worms. Course, I do eat a lot in general, but this weekend while out of town we ate at the Outback, I got a big steak with tons of fries and ate a bloomin' onion...was still hungry and polished off some cheddar fries as well. Then was starving a couple hours later. Same went with Applebees and a local steak house. That kind of appetite is not normal for me. Get home and the cats have puked all over the place and there are dried up worms in the puke.

The pictures are too dark for some and just fine for others - depends on your monitor settings. At any rate gonna get 'em to the vet and get them taken care of. Then going to see what the vet says about possible human infection...if not then I don't know what's goin' on but I'm gonna go find some food for now!
Anyone had any experience with this?
