Journal Title: Ukrainian Journal of Veterinary Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 285
Abstract
Trichomoniasis is a disease caused by protozoan parasites that live in the gastrointestinal tract or the genitourinary system. Often these protozoa are non-pathogenic, but there are also highly pathogenic species. Tritrichomonas foetus is a well-studied pathogen parasitizing the reproductive system of cattle. Recently, it was found that the same pathogen is able to parasitize in the intestines of cats - the subvascular or colon guts, causing colonic diarrhea. High risks of development of this invasion are noted in animals kept in nurseries, shelters for homeless animals. This article provides a brief overview of the state of the studies of trichomoniasis in cats and the characteristics of this parasite. The analysis of the results of studies of scientists on the detection of trichomoniasis in cats and methods of research for the detection of a parasite in feces of cats. Questions that are relevant for the prospects of development of this issue in veterinary medicine are highlighted.
