The field of infectious diseases in veterinary medicine is both rewarding and challenging, and Infectious Diseases of the Dog and Cat offers small animal veterinarians a lifeline by balancing relevant background, guidance, and optimising efficiency.

It provides a pathway for clinicians through this complex field by highlighting the most clinically relevant aspects of a wide range of diseases, granting them consideration for placement on dog and cat differential lists. Organised according to a system-based structure, all the major clinically affected systems are covered along with a catch-all multisystem chapter for infectious diseases that escape easy classification.

The book is clinically oriented, based on experience underpinned by published research data. Pathogen-specific information enables rational choice of diagnostics, therapy, and prognostication for a complete list of small animal infectious diseases, including bacterial, viral, parasitic/protozoal, and fungal pathogens. This concise reference guide will be an invaluable tool for clinicians as they develop their understanding of, and ability to communicate about, infectious diseases of the dog and cat.

Key features:

  • Provides a clinically oriented quick reference guide
