Cats are animals that are widely kept by the people of Indonesia. Both domesticated and feral cats can be attacked by ectoparasites. Ectoparasites that attacks cats are ticks, mites, fleas and fleas. Ectoparasites can breed well if the sanitation and cleanliness of the cat's cage is not maintained. Data collection was carried out for one month from February 1 st -28 th 2021 .Ectoparasite samples were taken directly from every cat that came to RSHP. The results of the examination showed that 27 cats were positively infected with ectoparasites from 29 cats that had the potential to be infected with ectoparasites. The prevalence of ectoparasite infestation in domestic cats that came to RSHP was 93,1%. A total of 27 cats were infested with ectoparasites consisting of 2 Rhipicephalus sanguineus fleas, 11 Felicola subrostratus fleas, two Sarcoptes scabiei infection mites, 14 infectious mites Otodectes cynotis and infection mites. Ctenocephalides felis as many as 7 tails. One individual cat may be more affected than one type of ectoparasite. The calculation of the prevalence of ectoparasites in cats observed was 93,1%, which consisted of the prevalence of Sarcoptes scabiei infestation 6,89%, Otodectes cynotis 48,27%, Ctenocephalides felis 24,13%, Ripicephalus sanguineus 6,89% and Felicola subrostratus 37,93 %. The presence of ectoparasites can be minimized by always maintaining cleanliness and routine caring for cats.

ABSTRAKPopulasi primata baik di penangkaran maupun di alam jumlahnya semakin berkurang. Salah satu penyebabnya adalah penyakit kecacingan. Kecacingan sering menginfeksi primata terutama yang di pelihara secara eksitu. Infeksi cacing menimbulkan kesakitan dan ketidaknyamanan pada primata dan dapat menularkan ke manusia (zoonosis). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui jenis cacing saluran pencernaan dan prevalensinya pada primata di Pusat Rehabilitasi Primata Jawa. Penelitian dilakukan pada 32 ekor primata yang terdiri atas 18 ekor owa jawa, 13 ekor lutung jawa dan satu ekor siamang. Pemeriksaan feses dilakukan secara kualitatif menggunakan metode natif dan pengapungan. Hasil pemeriksaan menunjukkan tiga ekor primata positif terinfeksi cacing nematoda saluran pencernaan, yaitu satu ekor owa jawa dan dua ekor lutung. Prevalensi kecacingan pada primata sebesar 9,4%. Prevalensi kecacingan masing-masing primata yaitu 3,1% pada owa jawa dan 6,3% pada lutung jawa. Prevalensi kecacingan pada lutung jawa lebih tinggi (15, 4%) dibandingkan dengan owa jawa (5,6%). Tipe telur cacing yang ditemukan adalah telur trichurid. Infeksi cacing tidak ditemukan pada siamang.Kata kunci : kecacingan, prevalensi, primata, trichurid ABSTRACTPrimate populations both in captivity and in nature are decreasing in number. One of the causes is helminthiasis. Worms often infect primates, especially those kept ex-situ. Worm infections cause pain and discomfort to primates and can infect humans (zoonosis). This study aims to determine the types of intestinal worms and the prevalence of worm infection in primates at the Java Primate Rehabilitation Center. The study was conducted on 32 primates consisting of 18 Javan gibbons, 13 Javan langurs, and one siamang. The qualitative examination of feces using native and flotation methods. The results showed three primates were positively infected with gastrointestinal nematode worms, one Javan gibbon and two langurs. The prevalence of helminthiasis in primates is 9.4%. The frequency of helminthiasis in each primate was 3.1% in Javan gibbons and 6.3% in Javan langurs. The prevalence of helminthiasis in Javan langurs was higher (15.4%) than in Javan gibbons (5.6%). The type of worm eggs found was trichurid eggs. Worm infections were not found in siamang.Key words : helminthiasis, prevalence, primate, Trichur

This study aims to determine the correlation between dairy cattle teat length at several lactation periods and subclinical mastitis profile. This study used 43 dairy cattle at several lactation periods. The lactation periods of the cows studied were lactation periods 1, 2, and 3. Subclinical mastitis testing used IPB-1 Mastitis Test, and teat length was measured using a measuring tape (cm). The data is taken and then analyzed using the average and described. The results showed that the average teat length of 5.11 cm did not experience subclinical mastitis, while the average teat length was 5.48 cm, 6.09 cm, and 7.28 cm, respectively, had subclinical mastitis. The highest incidence of subclinical mastitis is influenced by teat length and lactation period. The length of the teat and the lactation period, the higher the severity of subclinical mastitis. These findings are essential for a practical clinical diagnostic approach in dairy cattle with subclinical mastitis.

The stray cats population in Indonesia is increasing. This increased of stray cats population is because stray cats breed easily. The increased strayncats population has a high potential for the spread of disease between stray cats. One of them is a disease caused by ectoparasite infestation in stray cats. Ectoparasites that can infected stray cats are mites, lice and fleas. Ectoparasite infestations cause discomfort, pain, cause death in the long term and can transmit disease to humans (zoonosis). This study aims to investigate ectoparasite infestations on stray cats in the IPB Gunung Gede campus area. The study was conducted on 18 stray cats consisting of 10 female and 8 male cats for 2 days. Physical examination of the animals was carried out to check for ectoparasite infestation followed by microscopic examination of skin scraping and earwax samples use 10% KOH. Physical examination of stray cats showed that 18 stray cats were positive for ectoparasites with more than one ectoparasite infestation. The presentation of ectoparasite infestation on stray cats was 100% consisting of 88% mite infestation, 33% lice infestation and 55% flea infestation. Mite infestation was higher than lice and fleas, this was due to the very diverse on cats. Mite infestation consisting of Otodectes cynotis 77%, Sarcoptes scabiei 27.7%, Lynxacarus radovskyi 33% and Cheyletiella sp 5.5%. The high infestation of mites in stray cats can cause zoonotic diseases, otitis, allergic reactions and death.

This study aims to determine the prevalence of helminthiasis infection in domestic cats that live freely in the IPB Gunung Gede campus. This study used 15 samples of stray cat feces that live in the IPB Gunung Gede Campus. The collected fecal samples were then examined qualitatively by native and flotation methods. The results showed that 4 out of 15 feral cats were positively infected with protozoa with a prevalence of 26.6% on flotation examination, whereas on native examination, the results were negative. The positive result was indicated by the discovery of oocysts during flotation examination. The positive feral cat was found with watery diarrhea condition and his hair looks dull. Protozoal infections are more common in feral cats than in domestic cats. Protozoal infections can cause disturbances in the digestive tract in the form of diarrhea and are zoonotic.
