A comparative analysis of the long-term dynamics of domestic cats’ infestation on the territory of Perm with intestinal helminths and protozoa, as well as establishing the relationship between the extent of prevalence of individual pathogens were performed. The prevalence of intestinal parasites is 17.97%. The significant dominant species are Toxocara cati Schrank, 1788 (7.42%), Hydatigera taeniaeformis Batsch, 1786 (1.38%), Isospora felis Last M.J., Powell E.C., 1978 (3.85%) и Isospora rivolta Grassi, 1879 (1.10%). Also potentially dangerous parasites for humans were find: Lamblia spp. (syn. Giardia) Künstler, 1882, Cryptosporidium spp. Tyzzer, 1907, Toxoplasma gondii Nicolle & Manceaux, 1908, Spirometra erinacei-eurоpaei Rudolphi, 1819, Dipylidium caninum Linnaeus, 1758; Railliet, 1892, Dibothriocephalus latus (syn. Diphyllobothrium latum) Linnaeus, 1758, Opisthorchis felineus (Rivolta, 1884) Blanchard, 1895. The year’s dynamics of dominant infections are not clearly expressed, however, the correlation between the most common helminths and protozoa is really positive (р < 0.05), that confirms a presence of natural sites of specified parasites and a primary role of rodents in domestic cats infestation.
