- Deworming kittens is an essential part of fostering! In this video, I show you what my deworming routine looks like. Always talk with your foster coordinator or veterinarian before giving medication to a kitten!

Wow that’s great!! I’m looking forward to find it!!!
YYYEEESSSSS
Congratulations! Well deserved.
I have a 14 week old kitten and I was wondering what type of cat food is best for her
Wow, I'm so happy for you! What a great achievement. Congrats! :D
Yes, thanks for showing this. Deworming is crucial and I know so many folks who have no idea that deworming puppies and kittens is so necessary.
Or people that think cause they're indoors that they don't need to be deworming is definitely 100% needed cause it doesn't hurt them if they don't have anything

When I was a kid, my mom's coworker gave us an abandoned kitten found in her barn. We brought the kitten to the vet right away for an examination. After watching these videos, I'm surprised the vet didn't examine for parasites upon the first check-up. We only knew our cat had parasites weeks after the vet visit because he vomited up worms. Obviously we brought him to the vet again and got the little guy treatment.
I’m surprised that my rescue kitten doesn’t have worms nor throws up worms. But i’ll need to take him to the vet for a check up anyways.
People are so stupid
I love how you say "Good Job!" to each kitten after weighing them. 😂 Super cute!

I'll never pull that off, I always come prepare my long sleeves and gloves 😂😂
Cats don't scratch you when giving medicine.

...like a boss!
I'm happy to report, I just signed up for fostering kittens last week in my local organization.
Wish me luck guys
Good luck!
Thank you and good luck, AnaLouise!
Best wishes and good luck 🍀💚
How'd it go?
It didn't go well.
The lady runningthe kitten part of it was extremely rude, and tried to force us to keep kittens and cats that we tried to Foster.
I ended up working at a dog breeding place instead.
It's a very humane, every dog is treated very very well. And I get to play with all of them ^^
I just came back from the vet. I have a four month old tortoiseshell kitten name Mocha. This is a really awesome tip, thx
Hodon Yassin i recently just found a 4 week old kitten nyself
Hodon Yassin I HAVE A KITTEN NAMED MOCHA TOO DIDBSOSNJD
I had a tortie named Latte! woaahhh o:
Hodon Yassin oml I have a 6 month old Tortie named Coffee Bean! i guess coffee-themed names are pretty common for tortoiseshells :)
Their yucky faces are so cute!! Love how you manage to make your videos informative, useful, cute and entertaining! 💖
Thank you so much Hannah for your unending education. Because of you I'm becoming a foster parent!!!
That makes me so happy! Way to go!
@@KittenLady i really want to foster. i just need to update my cat's shots to keep him safe
You can ask the shelter staff that’s responsible for giving vaccines to show you how to do it and then just buy the vaccine at Tractor Supply or another store. It’s really easy. If that’s all that’s holding you up from fostering, surely the staff won’t mind helping you learn so your cat can be safe and you can start to foster :)
I love how she knows how it feels and hypes them up and tells them it is ok
i saw the notification and came right away!!! the intro was so adorable!!!
ARMIN
You deserve a bestseller, no one puts in more love and care for these little guys than you, I got my copy, he! he!
I just watched your video before administrating the de-worming medicine that my vet gave me. This was super helpful! I think the key is slipping the syringe in the sides of their mouths. That and not hesitating: no need to rush, but don't dilly-dally either.
Gave the medicine to both of my kittens, and everything went great! Thank you.
The thumbnail is hilarious 😂 thank you for being such an important part of the cat community, I look up to you. My family and I have fostered 15 different kittens over the last two years, and we aren’t stopping. 😄
Thank you for your videos. They helped me save an abandoned and almost starved 2 week old kitten. She is now a sassy 4 month old. Loving every moment. ❤❤❤
I love kittens so much your amazing kitten lady I love you
Thank you soooooooooooooooooo much for the likes💚 I’m at 24 now keep it going
My kitties tend to get really squirmy when I give them meds so I have to bundle them up in towel so they couldn't move much. Yours are well mannered 😁
Actually doing this now with my foster babies.....yuck.
Thank you for fostering!
@moved channels This is me and my new account.
I still want to foster ToT
Shera JL Talk to your parents about it, and show them some of her videos. Especially let them know that kittens barely take up any space in the house
Same here. I have a runt who I'm fostering with his 2 bros and he's a constant poopybutt. On deworm and he's sneezy and diarrhea. Ugh
Thank you for showing how easy it is to care for these sweet babies. Thank you also for letting everyone know how important it is to treat against worms and parasites.
You are the actual best person! You are so kind to animals. ❤️
OMG, MG's eyes when he gets dosed, lol. Could you do a video on how you would sterilize a soft carrier (like a Sleepypod) in between litters?
"Awww geeez... can't they make it tuna-flavoured or something?" lol ;)
Kudos on getting on the bestseller list!
Came for the tats, stayed for the cats :)
I'm not a cat person but your passion and intelligence towards your work is so inspiring I love watching your informative videos.
Hi! I’m a new fan and I love kitties I have decided that I’m going to foster kitties and puppies ASAP!
Taryn Anderson make sure you are properly prepared. It's not all just playing with kittens
Taryn Anderson
Be forewarned, it’s a lot of work. Make sure you study up on taming feral kittens and on dog training, including cat and dog behavioural studies; you’ll have to train an animal out of bad behaviour sooner or later. Make sure you have a good vet lined up, as you’ll have to make frequent visits. As well, make a decision on how young you’re willing to take them. Orphaned Neonatal and younger kittens and puppies will mean getting up frequently at night for feedings, and learning how to tube feed safely. Learning how to give medicines, fluids under the skin, and even IVs is beyond useful. If you take in sickly ones that need to be nursed to health, you’re going to have to face the stress that not all may live.
And one more thing all fosterers struggle with; you’re going to get attached, and you’re going to want to keep them! You’re going to have to get used to letting go of animals that will need to only become a temporary part of you life, but still receive all of your love.
It’s an awesome thing to do, though!
Melly Kidd
Did you mean "Be forewarned" ? lol 😁😅😆
I agree with everyone! Do your research because it’s not all fun and games! I would get into contact with your local shelter and see if they have any foster programs :) I think that’s the best way to start.
It's really hard indeed. We just rescued 2 days old baby and it's a lot of work. But when you look at the tiny furball you just forget all the trouble. If you wanna see him, we uploaded videos in our profile.
Omg I love you Kitten lady! You’ve helped me so much with my new kitten and cats! Very helpful and adorable!
Thank you Hannah for giving us this helpful information! I got your book recently so I can learn more to care for kittens. Love and support from Arizona! 💞
Love n support from Tennessee
I’m from az too!
@@sssiiiaaa2908 Awesome!!!! 👍
This is one of my favourite channels on YT. I'm only sorry that I didn't have access to such extensive knowledge about saving kittens earlier, it would make things much easier. Fortune bless you, Kitten Lady, you're an amazing woman.
I will never forgot seeing all the worms come out in my foster kittens poop. I was shocked! My friend had foster puppies that were just riddled with worms and before receiving their dewormer the dogs were pooping live worms!! Literal live worms were crawling on the newspaper it was nasty to say the least.
this happened to my kitten for the first time this morning... i don't think i'll ever be able to get the image out of my mind
Jenna Gadille Definitely ruined pasta for me for a while.
Eeww
@@Lisa-ve7pu why did you have to ruin pasta for me too
I hadn't thought of that ewwwwwwww
I heard you on fresh air on npr and got the chills! Gives me hope that knowledge of tnr and kitten fostering will be more common
I love every single one of your videos they make me happy like no other 😊 Soon I'll be moving in my own home and I'm definitely having foster cats, this year the nearest shelter is completely overfilled and kitten season just doesn't wanna end 🙁❤
I Love how you say Good Job to the kittens. Sweetest thing ever!
Thanks Hannah, I enjoy your videos. My younger cat has Feline Asthma and takes people medication and the vet compounds it with a liquid syrup that Alexie likes. She was 5 years old when first diagnosed now she is 10 and doing great! Alexie doesn’t always like her meds but she doesn’t have a choice and Mom always gets the meds down!
I've taken my 4 month kitten in for 2 de-worming treatments but Saturday found tiny white worms on his booty. I actually found out through your website that it was tapeworm and that the standard de-worming treatment doesn't treat them! He just got the shot of tapeworm treatment yesterday. Fun stuff! Thank you for all the information you put out!
Oh! My "Tiny But Mighty" book (by our own Hannah Shaw) that I had pre-ordered came in the mail. For a book it is Big and Mighty! Love It!
How much is it to buy the book
@@katiewhitehead9510 That was a while back. I got it on Amazon.
Thank you so much Hannah for inspiring me to be a better person! You are truly amazing 😊
"You guys will forgive me later". So adorable
Thank you for taking the time to educate other foster parents. I love watching your channel, and I love what you do. 🙂
Kittens be like "what you doing mommy"
Kitten Lady: you're gonna get a shot, you're gonna get a shot, everybody's gonna get a shot..
LMAO 🤣🤣
i saved a stay cat last winter. I would love it if you watched the video. it took me 2 months of love and patience and now he is my best buddy. Fixed, wormed, shots and I'm in love lol. My video is called how I tamed a stray feral cat. I love your channel. Just found it. Thank you so much for all that you do for these little guys. You're amazing
Out of the Flower Patch Batch of kittens, I think Fire Crown is my favorite.
Was sitting on the front row in Atlanta! Thank you for taking good care of these babies and thousands more!
I couldn’t stop laughing, I’ve never seen kittens do that before! They’re so stinkin’ adorable
Thankyou for this video! When I originally watched this video the first time I wasn't a foster carer, now that I am and have to deworm two kittens tonight I have a new found appreciation for this video!
Waiting for a college class to start, better watch how to deworm
Horizon Flyer 😂😂😂
This is so refreshing to watch after all the Brooke Houts drama.
I love watching your videos with cats. 😊
Omg I got your book on your tour and it’s been so helpful!!! Thank you so much you inspire me to foster kittens! 🐈
I'm so glad you were able to come to the book tour! That was a blast!
She inspires me with both of my pets and I have 1 of each..a dog n cat
What excellent care you give these kittens. Such a loving person. I love watching your videos.
Omg their little “icky!” faces are so cute! 😂❤️ does it matter that a few spat/shook some out?
That pattern on the white kittens where they have spots AND points is so gorgeous! I’ve never seen cats like that! 😍
You are absolutely amazing when handling kittens. It makes my heart melt to see how sweet and gentle you are! Subscribed
Hello, Kitten Lady. I'm shooting videos of stray cats. i feeding 35 stray cats. I take them to the vet and build cat houses :=)
Thank you!
Adorable Cats omg I thought you said you were shooting cats I got scared lol
Good for you!
@@sssiiiaaa2908 My English is not good. :)

Going through this now for giardia roundworm and ringworm (which is a contagious fungus and not a worm) but really sucks and is happening all at once to my poor new rescue baby!!! He’s being super good w his meds and we are soldiering through!! I’m glad to see this video to see if I can glean some tips to help my baby even better !
Great information! I am currently reading your book and working on getting my foster room back in order before I can start fostering again. Keep up the amazing videos
A NYT best seller? That’s great. I Purchased a copy at my nearest Barnes & Noble‘s. I have the hardcover and I love it because I love you, Kitten lady.
Aww I luv your videos I think your just such a sweet person✌️🥰😁
Yes she IS awesome
Those pointed tabbies are so adorable. They grow up to be such gorgeous adult kitties!
Hello I am a big fan of you and 8 really thank you for taking care of the cats and I really love cats I love sooooo much
That thumbnail is pure beauty
I can't help but laugh at their reactions. Way better than nasty bugs!
Kitten Lady I love you so much you help so many kittens! It would be a dream come true to meet you! You are my hero.
I remember being seven years old with my brand new puppy, who threw up what i thought was a bit of a spaghetti noodle at the time... he’s getting up there in age now, but still as vibrant as he was as a puppy.
Just go the book! I love it. It's so helpful and motivates me to help kittens in any way
Yay! I'm early! ❤❤ thank you for the informative video, Hannah!
These are the most gorgeous kitties!!! My kids love your videos.
So cute! I love you and your kittens hannah!❤️
Hannah is amazing with the kittens
Thank you Kitten Lady
These little fur babies are really cute.
Those kittens are so beautiful! What happens though if a kitten spits out a good amount of their dose, & you can't tell exactly how much they swallowed
You should use a technique I do. Two people needed! One open mouth and other put medicine direct near throat not in tongue then they got no choice:)
Cats can't spit things out
These little angels are amazingly beautiful and cute.
I'm impressed that you got almost all of it in their mouths. When I do my cat it ends up everywhere EXCEPT her mouth 😂😳🤦♀️
Currently deworming my foster kitties, and I have to say these babies take the medication so much better then mine!
Giardia is NO FUN, let me tell you. One of the worst experiences of my life. I got infected with it once as an undergrad and it landed me in the hospital for 4 days.
What the heck is a Giardia?
@@machigiceb7788 parasitic infection
How did you have them Giardia?
@@pinkcat9879 It's extremely contagious to humans.
Just ordered your book, cant wait until it arrived. Thank you so much for all that you do and passing on the knowledge for others to help the kittens. Thank you! Thank you!
I am always cleaning this stuff of the walls at the shelter I volunteer at. Haha
To bad I can only like this video one time. I would have like to give you 1-Million likes Kitten lady. Your an inspiration to humanity
ADORABLE
I had a batch of kittens recently that had upper respiratory infections so they got oral antibiotics and a salve in their eyes. They hated it and started to figure out what was about to happen when I got the meds out of the fridge. They really fought me, and I found swaddling them helped a lot so they couldn't scratch run away. I wish I could have made them understand I was helping them....but we cant talk to cats. All but one of them(had to be euthanized due to a genetic deformity) are happy and healthy in new homes now.
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️I love you kitten lady ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ you're so very helpful and smart ❤️
I had to give my cat meds after a surgery. It's not AS bad as people think. Just have to be patient with the cats and not panic, and be quick! I noticed when I was nervous she got nervous, but after the first time of giving her meds, I was more comfortable and so was she. Even though she hated it.
I really hope u see this but I had a kat who had kittens she is now fixed but when she had the litter she was year old and wasn’t really showing the meternal instinct she wouldn’t feed them or clean them when we you’ll her to the vet and the said the best thing For the kittens would be to foster them if we were open to doing that and I am 14 I love your channel I’ve been watching it for three years and I’ve always wanted to foster kittens but I was always really young and I didn’t know if I was ready for the commitment My dad said that he would foster the kittens and that I could help which I think was really it was very like fun to do but I also think that I would might want to do this when I’m older and your TH-cam videos have helped me and my dad so much to the point where now with heat with foster kittens and I help out on a regular basis we have a complete room for them that’s like amazing and we got the inspiration from you I’ve been fostering for about a year and I don’t think I would’ve been able to do Without your channel so I hope you see this and I hope you reply to this because I just wanted to say that you have been such a big help and that please don’t stop doing what you’re doing
Kitten Lady, both you and your kittens are adorable! Thank you for making these videos! They're helping me and my foster kittens!
Yay
When I worked for a breeder I assisted in the deworming (tablets) and deflead of 15 mental kittens
your hair looks pink did you dye it?
also cute kittens :3
You are so kind hearted
SO CUTE! 😻😻😻😻 I have 2 cats and I love them! Thank you so much kitten lady for saving and taking care of all these nice Cute Cats(or kittens) 😺😺😺😺😸😻
And I adore the fact she explains nearly everything
Thanks! This is so helpful even tho I’m not fostering yet 😂
"Yet" is the operative word!!! :)
@@KittenLady lol
Just seconds into the video and its already so cute
Can u do a vid on how to clean a house with ppl who have allergies to cats or life hacks to keep hair and dander to a minimum
yesss I hope she does this, I'm allergic to cats but I have four and the hair makes my skin itch
zfox 90900 great idea!! Until Hannah does here are some tips that helped me as I was severely allergic at first to cats. A. Put air purifiers on every floor esp in bedrooms. B. Use ALLERPET wipes on your kitty it helps remove the dander and smells amazing!! C. Wash bedding and throw rugs a bit more often. D. Brushing/combing the kitty often can help them get rid of hair /dander so they don’t have to lick themselves as much.
I clean with diluted bleach or apple cider vinegar too. Also if there are certain places that are off limits like a certain room or the counters that can help too. And surprising but true over time you will build immunity to your own kitties! I’m actually not allergic to mine anymore. Oh yes and when working w litter try to wear gloves and a dust mask. That always stirs my allergies. I hope these tips help! There’s something Hannah cleans w too called RESCUE disinfectant it’s on her supplies page on her website. 🐱🐱🐱
Addendum to singergrrl77's advice: If you have HVAC air filters in the house, make sure to get the "upgraded" anti-allergy filters, and don't be afraid to replace them "too soon" if a quick visual check shows them to be clogged up with hair etc. - helps a whole lot if the biggest air-moving thing in your house is helping scrub those allergens out of the air for you :)
My brother is allergic to cats, so I get mr. Fluffy groomed the day before he comes. I also cover the furniture with clean sheets right before he arrives. He has no reaction. Hopefully this helps!
Tama G yes great advice!! We change our hvac air filters too regularly!
These kittens are absolutely cuties.
Pleeease, we need the book in spanish!! Love you ❤
I didn’t realise you had a book! I’m going to order it now!
can you do a video on taking care of tripawds because there isn't a lot of info out there
@Susie Goodwin thank you I adopted my three legged cat almost a year ago and I am still trying to figure out what is best for him.
Hanna you are so sweet and informative adintellegant about all this kitten stuff I dont even have a kitten and I watch your videos all the time cause you are just so awesom to watch and listen too! Keep it up girl!
I have a problem, my friend has a new litter of kittens and one of them is acting weard. They're weak, not eating and quiet from the usual. There's no vets open at the moment and we don't know what to do. Hope you can help us.
If anyone knows what to do please help us out. We're scared the kitten might be ill
Find an emergency vet.
Plan on emergency feeds. Get to Petco, etc.. and get a bottle, goats milk or KMR. You're going to have to supplement. They might be dehydrated.
Thanks for the help but sadly it was the kittens time to go. We were too late.
Such beautiful and good kittens
I have a question, my 4 weeks old kitty has a swollen belly and his breath smells like something rotten. I got him from the shelter here in florida, they told me he got dewarmed but im staring to worry. He eats too much. Had fiarrea for 2 days but now pop is normal. Pls help
Bought your book and enjoying it right now.
I’ve been waiting for this! Even though I have the book lol
Thanks for doing these medical type videos!🙏🏼✨
Also, how is woodys personality? I’m looking for a super affectionate cuddly cat!
Great Job. They are sooo precious little cutie pies.
I want to buy the book "Tiny But Mighty" - Not only will I support one of my favourite youtubers, I will also learn a lot! Is there free shipping to the UK?
It's on amazon uk
If you buy from Wordery or the Book Depository, yes.
Kittens are so nummy! Going to need to be weaned off this adorable cuteness 😘🥰😍
