PezzLife Worm Test for Cats – Home Parasite Test Kit

Test first, treat when needed.

The PezzLife Worm Test for Cats offers a simple way to check your cat for several common intestinal parasites from the comfort of home. Collect stool samples over three consecutive days, send them to the laboratory free of charge, and receive the results conveniently through the Pezz app.

The laboratory test checks for common worm species including roundworms, whipworms and hookworms, as well as coccidia and Giardia.

Regular testing can help establish whether parasites are present and provide useful information when deciding, alongside appropriate veterinary advice, whether targeted treatment is required.

What Does the PezzLife Worm Test Check For?

Your cat's samples are laboratory tested for:

• Roundworms
• Whipworms
• Hookworms
• Coccidia
• Giardia

Rather than relying on visible signs of worms, the samples are analysed in a laboratory by experienced laboratory staff.

How Does the PezzLife Worm Test Work?

Using the test is straightforward:

1. Collect stool samples over three consecutive days using the test kit.
2. Send the samples to the laboratory using the included free laboratory submission service.
3. The samples are professionally analysed for the specified intestinal parasites.
4. Receive your results through the free Pezz app.

Collecting samples across three days can provide the laboratory with samples from different bowel movements rather than relying on a single sample.

Why Test Your Cat for Worms?

Cats can be exposed to intestinal parasites through their environment, prey, other animals and contaminated material.

A laboratory worm test can help determine whether your cat currently has evidence of the parasites included in the screening panel.

For owners who want to take a more targeted approach to parasite control, regular testing can provide useful information and may help avoid treating unnecessarily when testing indicates that treatment isn't required.

Your vet can advise you on the most appropriate testing and parasite-control schedule for your individual cat based on factors such as lifestyle, hunting behaviour, outdoor access and household risk.

Convenient Home Sample Collection

There's no need to take your cat somewhere simply to collect the sample.

Samples are collected at home over three days, making the process particularly convenient for cats that find travelling or veterinary visits stressful.

Once you've collected the required samples, they're sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Results Directly to the Pezz App

There's no need to wait for paperwork to arrive in the post.

Once laboratory analysis has been completed, your cat's results are provided through the free Pezz app, giving you convenient access to the test information from your smartphone.

FAQs

What does the PezzLife Worm Test for Cats detect?

The laboratory test screens your cat's samples for roundworms, whipworms and hookworms, as well as coccidia and Giardia.

Do I perform the actual test myself?

You collect the required samples at home, but the analysis itself is performed in a laboratory by experienced laboratory staff.

How many samples do I need to collect?

Samples are collected over three consecutive days before being sent to the laboratory.

Does it cost extra to send the samples to the laboratory?

No. Laboratory submission is free of charge as part of the PezzLife testing process.

How do I receive my cat's results?

Results are provided through the free Pezz app following laboratory analysis.

Can I use this instead of routinely worming my cat?

Testing can help establish whether the parasites included in the screening are detected and can support a more targeted approach to parasite treatment. However, your cat's appropriate parasite-control programme depends on their individual risk factors. Speak to your vet if you're unsure about whether testing, preventative treatment or a combination of approaches is appropriate.

Can indoor cats get worms?

Yes. Although lifestyle affects risk, indoor cats are not necessarily completely protected from intestinal parasites. Your vet can help assess your cat's individual risk and recommend an appropriate testing or treatment schedule.

Is Giardia a worm?

No. Giardia is a microscopic intestinal parasite rather than a worm. The PezzLife test screens for Giardia in addition to several common worm species and coccidia.

What should I do if my cat tests positive?

A positive result indicates that you should seek appropriate advice on treatment. Your vet can recommend treatment based on the parasite detected and your cat's individual circumstances.

Test Instead of Treating Unnecessarily

The PezzLife Worm Test for Cats makes laboratory parasite testing accessible from home. Simply collect your cat's samples over three days, send them to the laboratory and receive the results through the Pezz app.

By finding out whether common intestinal parasites are actually detected, you and your vet can make a more informed decision about whether treatment is needed.
