Kittens can be dewormed as early as a couple of weeks of age. The Center for Disease Control recommends that kittens be started on a prevenative deworming program at 3 weeks of age and continued every 2 weeks until they are 9 weeks of age. Your veterinarian should be consulted to choose an appropriate dewormer and discuss the need for deworming specific to your kitten's situation.

∙ 11y agoDepends on whether you have an indoor- or and outdoors cat. For a regular full grown indoor cat de-worming twice a year should be enough, an outdoor cat should be de-wormed at least 4 times a year. If your cat eats a lot of raw meat, fish, rodents etc. you should de-worm like an outdoor cat.

Can cats get fat?
Yes, cats can indeed get fat. It has nothing to do with a cat's coat pattern. Cats become overweight due to being overfed or fed low-quality food. Many dry foods and low-quality wet foods are often packed with carbohydrates - "filler" in the way of grains and cereals, none of which cats can digest or gain any nutrients from. Grain is used instead of meat because it is cheaper to produce and helps kibble pieces hold together. Cats need MEAT based protein, not PLANT based protein. Cats will often overeat on lower quality foods because they are not getting all the nutrients they need, which often results in obesity and diabetes.
