There was a kitten out side in the yard - very little - brought him in to feed - he had little worms crawling in his rectum - and died that night - can I get the worms he had? I scrubbed down as much as I could with clorox spray and wipes - he did not get anywhere close to my seven week old kitten -- please help! I'm freaking out -- how likely is it for a human to get worms from a cat/kitten?

Here's an article that explains the risks. Basically, you should be just fine, as long as you washed your hands after handling the baby and cleaned the area. It sounds like you were very careful, so you should be fine.

Just so you know, deworming your kitten wouldn't be a bad idea. In the very least, it will be a preventative measure. You can get deworming meds in most pet and department stores.
