Evcil kedilerde ishal yaygın olarak görülür ve küçük
hayvan hekimliğinde önemli bir yer tutar. Kedilerde ishal oluşturan pekçok
sebep mevcuttur. Bunlar arasında bazı bakteri, virus ve parazitlerin yer aldığı
enfeksiyöz ajanlar bulunur. Kedilerde yüksek morbidite ile seyreden ishal
vakalarında bazı enterik protozoonlar (Giardia spp., Cryptosporidium spp.,
Isospora spp., Toxoplasma
gondii ve Tritrichomonas foetus)
ile bazı helmintlerin (Toxocara
cati ve Toxascaris leonina) varlığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu
parazitlerin bir kısmı zoonoz önemlerinden dolayı kedi sahiplerinin sağlığını
da tehdit edebilmektedir. Bu derleme ile
kedilerde ishale sebep olan parazitler ve bunların tedavisine yönelik bilgi
verilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
