The animal welfare, environmental impact, pest control functions, and disease effects of free‐ranging cats can be generalized and all are grounds for humanely reducing their numbers

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 5, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Trap‐neuter‐release of free‐ranging cats negatively influences cat welfare. Cats in the environment threaten wildlife and public health irrespective of scale. Feeding cats exacerbates pest rodent issues. Intensive adoption and responsible euthanasia are better alternatives. Abstract Although the domestic cat Felis catus is implicated in multiple faunal

Tick‐borne pathogens in ticks from urban and suburban areas of north‐western Spain: Importance of Ixodes frontalis harbouring zoonotic pathogens

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 499-510, September 2023., 2023
A higher number of ticks was collected in suburban than in urban areas, being Ixodes frontalis the most commonly detected species. The results have significant implications for public health since most Rickettsia spp. detected are zoonotic. This is the first report of the detection of Borrelia spp. and Rickettsia spp.

Causes of pregnancy arrest in the canine species

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 58, Issue S2, Page 72-83, September 2023., 2023
Abstract In the canine species, early pregnancy arrest before 30–40 days of pregnancy will induce intra‐uterine embryonic or foetal resorption, with very few clinical signs. If no genital examination by ultrasound is performed at that time, it will often remain unnoticed and the bitch will be qualified as infertile. It is only when pregnancy stops at a
