Although there are books available dealing with canineparasitology, there is at present no book detailing parasites thatoffers clinical information specific to felines. Cats differsignificantly from dogs in their parasitic infections andinfestations. Although dogs and cats do share a few parasites, thevast majority of the parasites of these pets are specific to eithercats or dogs, not to both.
This must-have reference offers an in-depth examination offeline parasites. Topics covered include parasite identification,history, geographic distribution, pathogeneisis, epidemiology,zoonosis, diagnosis, treatment, control, and prevention. Because ofthe immense worldwide popularity of cats and due to the amount oftravel undertaken by cats and their owners, the authors haveproduced a book that is international in scope. Consequently, thisexhaustive reference has strong appeal to practitioners andveterinary parasitologists in North America and around theworld.
