Helminthiasis or worm infections in cats are prevalent. Groups of nematodes, such as Toxocara cati, are most commonly found infecting the digestive tract of cats. Apart from that, the zoonotic potential of several types of worms is the main reason a worm eradication program is essential. The high prevalence of infection can be dangerous, leading to conditions such as diarrhea, lethargy, anemia, and enteritis, which, if fatal, can lead to the death of cats. Community service activities aim to increase the role of the Cat Lovers Community in suppressing cases of worms by optimizing the worm eradication program, specifically in the Lamongan Regency. Activities are carried out using socialization and education methods for cat owners regarding the dangers of worms, clinical symptoms, pathogenesis, and appropriate treatment management. Health services and deworming of cats are conducted to determine the cats' optimal health status. A total of 100 participants attended the event, where 150 cats received free treatment. The activity results showed an increase in participants' knowledge by 44.5% regarding appropriate worm eradication programs, the selection of broad-spectrum worm medicine, and the timing of worming after socialization. Increasing public awareness and knowledge regarding optimal treatment, especially among cat lovers, can minimize the risk of helminthiasis infection in pet cats. |
