My cat’s stool has no worms, but white rice-like tapeworm segments often stick to its rear; I dewormed inside and out once in the morning, worms stopped, but by evening they appeared again
Tapeworms are internal parasites needing cat-specific oral dewormers (fenbendazole, etc.); they shed white rice-like egg segments and are stubborn. After deworming, if segments reappear, re-dose, then deworm again in two weeks to clear them. Deworm monthly and avoid raw water, dirty water, and raw meat.
Nearly 3-month male kitten has a sesame-sized white grain on its bottom; are they parasite eggs?

How is it best to feed eggs to a dog?

What happens if a dog is given egg white?
A little cooked egg white is fine, but raw egg white may carry bacteria and parasites. Too much is hard to digest and the avidin harms vitamins, so egg yolk is better.
What are yellow, egg-yolk-like objects on top of a scab?
The yellow objects are likely dried-out parasite eggs, such as tapeworm segments, left on a wound. Cleaning the wound and regular internal and external deworming are recommended.
