CDVMS In-Person CE Event: Changing Landscapes: Veterinary Parasitology Trends & Innovations AND Parasitology Perspectives for Feline Patients: Insights & innovations

Presented by: Christopher Gargamelli, DVM, MBA

Changing Landscapes: Veterinary Parasitology Trends

In recent years, the parasite risks facing pets has grown in many parts of the country. In addition to increased parasite populations and ranges, other changes have been documented that impact the risks associated with key parasites. In this session, we will discuss some of the evolving canine parasite risks, focusing on ticks and heartworms, as well as the importance of year-round protection. Information about the development of new parasiticides and properties of a recently introduced broad-spectrum canine parasiticide will be covered.

Parasitology Perspectives for Feline Patients: Insights and Innovations

Recent studies confirm that cats, including both outdoor and indoor cats, throughout the US are at risk from several key parasites. In some regions, the risks are ever-present and increasing. In this session, we will discuss some of the key feline parasite risks, as well as the importance of year-round protection. Information about the development of new parasiticides and properties of a recently introduced broad- spectrum feline parasiticide will be covered.
