Pet Deworming Services in Lahore & Karachi
Why Deworming Is Essential for Every Pet
Intestinal parasites are among the most common health threats to pets in Pakistan. Roundworms, hookworms, tapeworms, and whipworms cause weight loss, diarrhoea, anaemia, poor coat condition, and in severe cases can be life-threatening. Many are also zoonotic — transmissible to humans — making deworming a family health issue.
At Zia Vet Clinic, we provide safe, vet-supervised deworming protocols tailored to species, age, weight, and lifestyle.
Comprehensive Pet Deworming Guide
We begin with a faecal examination to identify specific parasites, allowing us to select the most effective medication. Puppies and kittens are dewormed starting at two weeks, every two weeks until twelve weeks, then monthly until six months. Adults are typically dewormed every three to six months depending on environment and risk. We integrate deworming into broader wellness and vaccination schedules.
Common signs include visible worms in stool, scooting, a bloated appearance (especially in young animals), unexplained weight loss, dull coat, diarrhoea (sometimes bloody), and vomiting. However, many pets carry worms without obvious symptoms, which is why regular preventive deworming is important.
Several common pet parasites, including roundworms and hookworms, can infect humans — particularly children. Regular deworming combined with good hygiene significantly reduces
household risk.
