Protecting Your Cat with Neovet For Large Cats

Fleas: Fleas are the leading cause of skin disease in cats. While only the size of a pinhead, these tiny parasites infect the skin and coat, causing problems that range in severity from itchiness, weeping sores and scaly skin to, in some cases, life-threatening allergic reactions.

Roundworms: In Australia, there are two species of roundworms that can infest cats, Toxascaris leonina and Toxocara cati, which can spread to humans. The prevention of these intestinal worms is important to protect the health of your cat and your family.

Hookworms: Hookworms are similar to roundworms in that they live in the cat's digestive system. After attaching to the lining of the intestinal wall, they feed on blood, which can cause internal blood loss.

Ear Mites: Despite their microscopic size, ear mites can cause severe irritation in the ear canal where they feed on wax and oils. Attempts to relieve itching can result in head shaking, scratching or rubbing of the ears, and secondary ear infections.

Lungworms: Lungworm infections in cats are most often caused by the species Oslerus osleri, which infiltrates the respiratory system via the trachea. The symptoms of lungworm range from increased respiratory rates and persistent coughing, to respiratory distress and even failure.

Heartworms: Heartworm infection is a potentially fatal disease of the heart, lungs and other organs. Heartworm is caused by the parasitic worm Dirofilaria immitis and is transmitted to cats through mosquito bites. Sadly, wherever there are mosquitos, there is risk of heartworm.

On the basis of current evidence, the Australian Heartworm Advisory Panel has recommended heartworm prevention for all domestic cats year-round throughout Australia. As per the current Australian Guidelines for Heartworm Prevention in Cats, Australian Veterinary Wholesalers advises that cats should see a veterinarian regarding heartworm testing in either of the following circumstances:

• Commencement of heartworm treatment in cats over two months of age
• Cats that have missed monthly heartworm treatments
