Is there a broad spectrum cat wormer.....?

[gritsar]

that can be bought OTC without a prescription from a vet?

I am curious about this myself, after 4-5 years without a cat I recently adopted 2 kittens that appear wormy....

Strongid (pyrantel pamoate) works on cats

It pretty much works on everything...except tapes.

Interesting, good to know.

For tapeworms, you can get praziquantel OTC.

Strongid is only indicated for rounds and hooks. Panacur (safeguard) is a wider spectrum, but I don't know if it gets rounds. You can use the goat suspension. I don't have the dosage handy, but its easily googled.
