Kitten not eating, lethargic day after deworming. Is this normal?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 10 lbs

We wormed my kittens and now one of the two won't eat really and just lays around. She will purr but isn't acting like her self. And we wormed her yesterday by the way. She was fine yesterday.

Deworming doesn’t usually cause cats to feel bad. If your kitty still acts sick tomorrow or won’t eat then I would recommend that she be seen by a veterinarian. Good luck and I hope she improves quickly. Thank you for using Pet Coach.
