Do tapeworm segments show up in cat vomit?
My boyfriend's cat has fleas. This is why I think the problem is most likely tapeworm, but I'm not seeing any segments in the feces or around the cat's anus. The symptoms I'm noticing are that he's vomiting frequently, and despite eating over a cup of dry food (Wellness) and a full 5 oz. can of wet (B. F. F.) per day, he's losing weight. The other day, the cat had vomited up a puddle of bile and I noticed small white things, about the size of sesame seeds in it. I'm going to worm the cat regardless, and make my boyfriend pay for Frontline, but I want to know it it's possible for the cat to vomit up tapeworm segments.
DON'T worm the cat because a) you don't have a clue what type of worm the cat has and b) storebought wormers contain harsh pesticides that can make cats VERY sick.
The tapeworm is actually one worm with segments that grow and expel from the cat once they're mature. The tapeworm head is usually suctioned onto the intestinal wall - not the stomach - so no, they're not likely to vomit the segments up. Take the cat to a vet along with a fecal sample so the vet can determine the type of worm and give it the appropriate SAFE treatment. If you're going to say you "can't afford" a vet then you should not have this cat.
I've heard LOTS of people say that Frontline doesn't work on their cats. Use Advantage instead. If money is an issue the vet can give you one dose based on the cat's weight then you can get a multipack at http://www.800petmeds.com before you need to dose it again.
edit: Kathryn's suggestion of Revolution was very good because it doesn't just kill and prevent fleas and ear mites and protect against heartworm it kills and prevents hook and roundworm as well - which is most likely what this cat has.
