Question: Website data re
tapeworms seem pretty adamant that
tapeworms only come from fleas... How about fecal matter from other animals
containing tapeworm segments...?
Roundworms produce microscopic eggs which are shed in the faeces of infected cats, whereas
tapeworms release mature
segments (which again
contain eggs) from the end of the worm into the faeces.
As the
tapeworm grows, the end
segments of the worm's body will detach and the
containing eggs and sections are excreted.
