Relationships Between European Wildcats and Domestic Cats in an Area of Sympatry: Exploring Key Conservation Questions on Hybridization and Disease Transmission

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

Omeprazole as a Novel Treatment Option for Giardiasis in Cats

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
In this study, cats with giardiasis were allocated to omeprazole, metronidazole, secnidazole or placebo groups and monitored from day 0 to 14. Omeprazole achieved a reduction in Giardia cyst shedding comparable to metronidazole and also demonstrated faster clinical improvement, indicating a potential therapeutic advantage.

Investigation of Some Clinicopathologic Alterations in Cats Infected With Mycoplasma haemofelis and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum in Mashhad, Iran: An Observational Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study detected Mycoplasma haemofelis (34.78%) and Candidatus M. haemominutum (65.21%) in 23% of Iranian cats via PCR. Infection correlated with age, gender and outdoor access (*p < 0.05), causing significant hematologic/biochemical changes. No inter‐species differences in clinical presentation emerged between Mhf and CMhm. ABSTRACT Background Data
