Hi,

I am not an authority on this topic. I have never heard of a Vet giving a shot for tapeworms. They usually give a pill and then another pill within a couple more weeks. I housesat for a cat that always had tapeworms (eating those moosie mices outside) and I never excluded it from any activity. I just knew that every few months I had to call the Vet for another round of pills. I wouldn't worry about it - but call the Vet to see what they think. A phone call should do it. You might want to see why they gave the kitten a shot rather than the pill. Like I said, I have never heard of a shot being given, but then I have always dealt with adult cats with this problem.
