My short friends have been excessively hungry of late. Usually once fed they'll not want feeding again until the next meal time. But lately once fed they wolf it and then shout for more about half an hour later. I'm wondering if worms may the culprit, if so which wormer do people use?

Yep Milbemax. If you are worried about giving them (though they are tiny) a nurse can usually do it foc. I love giving wormers to cats smile.

If you see worms after giving, repeat the dose 3-4 weeks later. If still hungry after then time for vet ck possibly (depending how old they are)

Lovely cats smile

Our vets recommended Profender. It's a spot on, which is handy if your feline friends are as difficult to get tablets down as ours is.
It claims to protects against more varieties than Milbemax as well.

Profender is good, just very expensive in comparison.
