White Worm In Stools, Fever. History Of Playing With Kittens With Gooey Green Stuff From Their Eyes. Possible Infection?
We live in an apartment building and there are cats that have taken up residence outside our doors. One of the cats had kittens and the kittens have gooey green stuff coming from their eyes. My children like to play with these cats and kittens when they think no one is watching. Now my older daughter says she has seen a white worm in her own stool and has been running a fever since yesterday. Should I take her to the hospital to be checked?
