How can my indoor kitten get worms if she never goes out or has fleas?

Question

How Could A Kitten Get worms if They Don't got outside at all. We have no fleas nor animals that have any. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 3 months and 14 days old

Yes, Bleu could have worms even though she doesn't go outside. Worms are passed from mother to kitten via milk during nursing, so if she was not treated for worms before, it is possible she has them and you will need to get a deworming treatment from your vet.
