Does an indoor cat need a fecal parasite test every year?

An indoor cat generally does not require a fecal parasite test every year unless there are specific concerns, such as changes in health, diet, or exposure to other animals. However, regular veterinary check-ups are important to monitor overall health and to assess the need for testing based on individual circumstances. If your cat shows signs of gastrointestinal issues or has been exposed to potential parasites, a fecal test may be recommended. Always consult with your veterinarian for tailored advice.
