1st Edition
Although there are books available dealing with canine parasitology,
there is at present no book detailing parasites that offers clinical
information specific to felines. Cats differ significantly from dogs in
their parasitic infections and infestations. Although dogs and cats do
share a few parasites, the vast majority of the parasites of these pets
are specific to either cats or dogs, not to both.
This must-have
reference offers an in-depth examination of feline parasites. Topics
covered include parasite identification, history, geographic
distribution, pathogeneisis, epidemiology, zoonosis, diagnosis,
treatment, control, and prevention. Because of the immense worldwide
popularity of cats and due to the amount of travel undertaken by cats
and their owners, the authors have produced a book that is international
in scope. Consequently, this exhaustive reference has strong appeal to
practitioners and veterinary parasitologists in North America and around
the world.
