Is it safe to administer Pyrantel Pamoate and Praziquantel to a lactaing mother cat? And how old must the kittens be before I can worm them? Also what age is it safe to give a flea treatment to the kittens?

I usually do not recommend using Praziquantel in lactating mother cats, Pyrantel Pamoate is usually fine and they can be dewormed from around 4 weeks of age. flea treatment can be given as soon as 2 days of age-- the ONLY safe product is Frontline spray.
