My cat's recent bloodwork showed elevated eosinophils. Vet said it could be parasites or allergies, but she said there is no way my cat has parasites because she is indoors.

Since I have been fighting parasites myself for over 3 years, I definitely want to deworm the cat.

Cat takes methimazole daily for hyperthyroidism. Anyone know if it's safe to give Drontal deworm med?

Sorry, your Vet is a moron. Your cat could be infected from you. Did you tell your Vet you had parasites? I would find another Vet.

Just my 2 cents

We take parasitic drugs when we are on thyroid meds so I would deworm my cat. I still think you need another vet.
