Cats Parasites

Parasites and Zoonoses

A guide to understanding your cat's complex issues.

Elaine Wexler-Mitchell, D.V.M.

Part of taking good care of your cat includes protecting him from the many parasites to which he might be exposed during his life. It makes good sense for his health, and in many cases, protects the human members of your family from illness as well.

I don't know what to do! My little kitten, Ginger has a bunch of blood on her butt! Is it parasites?

I'm reading an incredible book, "Parasites, Tales of Humanity's Most Unwelcome Guests," by Rosemary Drisdelle. The book "describes their evolution and life histories and considers their significant benefits. Deftly blends the sociological with the scientific, this natural and social history of parasites looks closely at a fascinating, often disgusting group of organisms and discovers that they are in fact an integral thread in the web of life."
