You might notice the casings of dead worms in an area where your cat sleeps often. I remember when Lily had worms. I noticed them in the seat of a cushioned black office chair that she liked to sit on and manage the office (when I had a small business). I also saw them live coming out of her rear. So I got her in and treated. At no time did I see the worms affect her appetite in any way. She was treated immediately and recoverd from that most un-ladylike of afflictions.

So look to your vet for help with this one!
