Keep them separate from any other cats or dogs in the house, especially their litter box. Did they send out a fecal? That would confirm it. Often times kittens will test positive for giardia + cystisospora (coccidia). Then they should recheck a fecal sample after meds are finished. If you are looking for more info on this, VCA has good info on these

THANK YOU!!! they didn’t do a fecal test just could tell by their bellies and issues. I’m only on day 1 of meds that are only enough for 3 days

No problem! Yeah usually kittens have little bloated bellies which usually indicates worms. Hopefully treatment goes well!
