ABSTRACT
A ten-year old cat showing signs of anaemia, inappetence, salivation and muscular twitching was diagnosed as having a mixed infection with the blood parasite Haemobartonella felis and the liver fluke Opisthorchis felineus. Opisthorchis felineus can infect man and is therefore considered a zoonosis. Neither disease has been previously reported in Trinidad. (AU)
