Feline Heartworm Guidelines updated by the AHS

Routine heartworm screening is now recommended for cats, according to the recent guideline updates announced by the American Heartworm Society (AHS) in managing the disease.

Addressing the “persistent” underdiagnosis and undermanagement of heartworm disease in cats is the driving force behind recent guidelines updates from the American Heartworm Society (AHS).

The AHS Feline Heartworm Guidelines for veterinarians, finalized following a scientific review by parasitology, cardiology, and clinical practice experts, provides revised guidance on heartworm screening, mosquito control, and treatment options for heartworm-positive cats.
