First Case of Clinical Canine Hepatozoonosis in the Ukraine
Canine hepatozoonosis is caused by the tick-borne protozoans Hepatozoon canis and Hepatozoon americanum (Apicomplexa, Hepatozoidae). While H. americanum is widespread in the south-central and south-eastern United States, H. canis is documented in Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America, and is transmitted to dogs by ingesting infected ticks, primarily ...

Vector-Borne Pathogens in Stray Cats in Eastern Germany (Thuringia)
Bacterial, protozoal, and viral vector-borne pathogens (VBPs) can cause infections in cats. There is little information on feline VBP prevalence in Germany. Stray cats are frequently exposed to vectors but receive no veterinary care.

Prevalence and Sequence Analysis of Vector-Borne Zoonotic Diseases in Stray Cats in Istanbul. [PDF]
Istanbul, the largest metropolis in Türkiye, is home to a notable population of stray cats. While cats enrich the city's culture, they can also transmit various diseases, posing diagnostic challenges for clinicians. This study aimed to detect infections in stray cats using PCR and sequencing to identify Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Bartonella, Hepatozoon ...

Primary pyomyositis and uveitis in a cat
A 6‐year‐old neutered male Siamese cat was referred for investigation of hindlimb ataxia and blindness of 2 weeks’ duration. Primary pyomyositis was suspected; therefore, clindamycin was prescribed following Penrose drain tube fixation, and eye drops containing tobramycin, atropine and prednisolone were administered.

HEPATOZOONOSIS IN FOXES FROM PORTUGAL [PDF]
Hepatozoon, sp. is described for the first time in foxes (Vulpes vulpes silacea) in Portugal. Of 301 foxes examined, 143 (48%) were infected. The gametocyte was the predominant stage of the life cycle and was found in every organ except the bone marrow, where schizonts were the most abundant stage.

Out of 13 samples, 69.2% (n = 9) were detected with Hepatocystis sp., while 15.4% (n = 2) were positive with Hepatozoon ophisauri. Two individuals had multiple infections from both species. This information is essential for the future prevention of zoonotic outbreaks and surveillance programmes.

Abstract Background The magnitude of diagnostic abnormalities can influence the perception of clinical outcome. Extreme neutrophilic leukocytosis (ENL) is an uncommon finding caused by markedly increased granulopoiesis. A lack of recent, large‐scale studies limits our understanding of the importance, causation, and prognosis associated with ENL in dogs.

An analysis of companion animal tick encounters as revealed by photograph‐based crowdsourced data
Crowdsourced data reveal that mostly adult ticks are spotted on pets, and that they are detected later in the blood‐feeding process than were ticks attached to humans, putting pets at heightened risk for tick‐borne disease transmission. The doubling of reports of ticks found on pets during autumn and winter may reveal a critical knowledge gap amongst ...
