The purpose of this article is to provide information about the causes and effects of scabiosis infection caused by Notoedres cati mites and its treatment. Kuni cat had clinical symptoms of itching or pruritus for one month. Clinical examination found lesions such as hyperkeratosis, alopecia accompanied by erythema, ulcers, and crusts on the head, ears, neck, front legs, and tail. The results of the supporting examination using the superficial skin scraping method found the presence of Notoedres cati. Hematological examination results showed an increase in white blood cell count (leukocytosis) and a decrease in red blood cells resulting in anemia. Based on anamnesis, clinical examination, and supporting examination, the case cat was diagnosed with scabiosis accompanied by leukocytosis and normochromic normocytic anemia. The case cat was given causative therapy in the form of ivermectin as much as 0.04 mL subcutaneously with two administrations in a 14-day interval. Symptomatic therapy was given diphenhydramine HCI subcutaneously as much as 0.16 mL with two administrations in 14-day intervals and Chlorpheniramine maleate as much as ½ tablet every 12 hours, for 14 days orally. Supportive therapy given is fish oil soft gel once a day orally for 14 days. In addition, topically by bathing the cat twice a week using sulfur soap and blood enhancer sangobion capsules once a day orally for 14 days.

Upper respiratory tract infection (URI) is characterized by irritation and inflammation of the upper respiratory tract, often accompanied by clinical signs such as sneezing, mild coughing, and nasal discharge. This case report discusses the anamnesis, clinical examination, and diagnostic findings to establish a definitive diagnosis and appropriate treatment for a 1.5-year-old female domestic cat named Lucy, weighing 2.5 kg. Lucy presented with sneezing persisting for two months, mucopurulent nasal discharge, loss of voice, and stridor during breathing. Hematological analysis revealed leukocytosis and thrombocytopenia, while cytological examination of the nasal discharge showed neutrophilic infiltration. Thoracic radiographs revealed a bronchial pattern in both lung lobes, and nasal discharge culture tested positive for Pasteurella spp. Based on these findings, Lucy was diagnosed with URI accompanied by bronchitis and treated with a combination of Doxycycline hyclate (10 mg/kg orally, once daily), Methylprednisolone (0.5 mg/kg orally, once daily for 7 days), Bromhexine HCl (1 mg/kg orally, once daily until nasal discharge resolved), and a multivitamin (once daily).

Demodicosis is a skin disease caused by Demodex mites and is commonly found in dogs. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a combination of ivermectin and amitraz for the treatment of demodicosis in dogs. A three-year-old male Pekingese dog weighing 5.5 kg was presented to the Internal Medicine Laboratory, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Udayana University, exhibiting lethargy and hair loss in the back, neck, legs, and extremities. Physical examination revealed alopecia, erythema, skin thickening, oily and scaly skin, a rancid odor, and hyperpigmentation. The dog exhibited a high level of pruritus. Routine hematological examination showed the dog was experiencing anemia and leukocytopenia. The diagnosis was confirmed as demodicosis based on microscopic examination of deep skin scrapings. The prognosis for this case was considered favorable. The dog was treated with subcutaneous ivermectin (Wormectin 0.5 mg/kg BW, PT. Medion Farma Jaya, Bandung, Indonesia) and antihistamine diphenhydramine HCL (Recodryl® 4 mg/kg BW, PT. Global Multi Pharmalab, Semarang, Indonesia). Weekly baths with amitraz (V-Traz Amitraz 12.5%, PT. Olego Mandiri Indonesia, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia) at a concentration of 500 ppm were administered, along with daily oral administration of a skin and coat supplement (Coatex® vetplus, Mega Utama Medica, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia) at a dose of one capsule. After 14 days, the dog’s condition showed improvement, with reduced scratching intensity, decreased erythema, and resolution of the previously oily skin.

This report aims to discuss the results of anamnesis, physical examination, and supporting examination in a six-year-old case cat with nasal discharge and watery eyes that had lasted for seven months. The cat's pre-existing status showed normal physiologic data. Physical examination found swelling on the left side of the cat's face, yellowish discharge from the eye and nose from the left side and swollen left mandibular lymphonodus. Localized redness was found on the maxilla, namely the gingiva. Haematological examination revealed anaemia. Radiographic examination showed a mass on the left side of the face which made the boundaries unclear. Histopathologic examination showed hyperplasia. Based on anamnesis, clinical examination, and supporting examination, the case cat was suspected to have a tumor. The therapy given was anti-inflammatory drug meloxicam.

The integumentary system is the body's outer defence system that functions as a defence system against temperature, foreign substances, and fungal, bacterial, and parasitic infections. The purpose of writing this article is to provide information about the causes and impacts of Malassezia fungal infections and their treatment. In normal skin function, there is a group of normal microorganisms that grow on the surface of the skin that can be components and indicators in determining skin health. Malassezia fungi are fungi in the form of yeast or mycelium that live in areas of the body that are rich in sebaceous such as the back, chest, and head. A number of diseases that originate from the pathogenicity of Malassezia fungi are interpreted as malasseziosis which causes many symptoms such as hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, scaly skin, itching. Malassezia infection is interpreted as a decrease in the immune system such as the complement system, cellular immune response, and humoral immune response. The diagnostic method for malasseziosis in dogs requires thorough observation of the distribution of lesions such as alopecia lesions, pruritus, hyperpigmentation, hyperkeratosis, and crusts. The necessary supporting examinations such as Wood's lamp and tape acetate. Morphologically, observations were made using a microscope with a magnification of 1000Χ by observing the results of acetate tape that had been stained with diff-quick by looking at the shape of the Malassezia fungus like a round shoe sole. Post-infection control and treatment were given systemically and topically through the use of oral ketoconazole agents, symptomatic treatment of pruritus with chlorpheniramine maleate, and supportive with fish oil, vitamin CDE, and mineral Z.
