Tapeworm?

I'm sure that I read somewhere that it's a sign....but I believe live ones are like grains of cooked rice and dead ones look like sesame/tomato seeds.....

Might be worth phoning the vet tho. Unless Vinnie has eaten tomatoes!

Sorry I'm no help! Hopefully someone can be tho Smile

Tapeworms look like small grains of rice, but I don't know about tomato seeds. What colour are they?

When I first got my cat as a kitten she has tapeworms in her poo! (she obviously hadn't been wormed since birth as there were LOADS)

They are actually a bit larger than grains of rice, depending on the type, and they wriggled sick Crying or Very sad

BUT when I was looking online at the time, I'm sure I read that tomato/seseme seed looking ones are dead 'segments' of tape worm.....

They's have been roundworms. You don't see the tapeworm itself, just the broken off segments. Worming tablets disolve tapeworms so you never actually see the worm itself.
