You do not treat a rabbit unless you see the worms/residue. Watch the "pellets" for white lines ... or check the vent/fanny area for little friends (push on the anal region, exposing the inside tissue ... if there are friends, they will show up!).

Is kitty an indoor/outdoor friend? They usually pick up rounds from the friends they eat. I have several cats and rabbits that are in their direct contact. have not had a problem with transfer since they do not share "food"!

Just watch bunny ... and treat kitty!

Best of luck ...
