The agency provides rapid disease identification and testing to reduce the costs and pain associated with animal diseases and to help prevent potential epidemics. This highly regarded lab is one of only 32 full-service diagnostic labs in the U.S. and Canada accredited by the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians. Created to aid and educate Texas animal industries in recognizing and preventing animal diseases and poisonings, TVMDL also helps protect human health by identifying diseases transmissible from animals to people. TVMDL develops new diagnostic tests, then transfers that technology from research labs to routine use. TVMDL offers the broadest spectrum of DNA testing for animal disease diagnosis in the nation. These molecular tests identify the genetic codes of pathogens, quicken diagnoses, and help open international trade for Texas livestock. Because the agency also serves as an animal disease data center, information about disease incidence, geographic and seasonal distribution of diseases, and antibiotic sensitivity patterns are computerized and readily available.

Livestock owners who suspect the occurrence of contagious disease should immediately contact the local practicing veterinarian, area regulatory veterinarian or county agent who, in turn, will be responsible for reporting to the state veterinarian. E. An investigation of the reported contagious disease will be made by representatives of the livestock sanitary board, preferably with the veterinarian or county agent reporting the disease. If necessary to protect the animal and poultry populations, a quarantine may be imposed on involved and exposed animals and areas. The quarantine will remain in effect until the threat has been removed. AUTHORITY NOTE: Promulgated in accordance with R.S. 3:2093, R.S. 3:2094 and R.S. 3:2095.

Feline Respiratory Disease Heartworm Disease in Cats Top When it comes to heartworm disease, dogs and cats have a lot in common. But new research shows that in cats there is the potential for more severe reactions and even sudden death. Indoor cats are also at risk for heartworm disease. Cases of heartworm disease in cats have been reported across the United States and many other countries. Heartworm disease is most common in areas where dogs are also at risk. What are the signs? The most common signs of heartworm disease in cats - coughing , vomiting, breathing difficulties, weight loss, and lethargy - are often mistaken for other conditions such as asthma, pneumonia and digestive problems. In fact, most common clinical signs of heartworm disease in cats resembles bronchial asthma. Prevention Once a cat is diagnosed with heartworm disease, managing the disease can be difficult. Treatment, as well as non-treatment, is very risky, because there's currently no approved product for treating adult heartworms, and the onset of clinical signs is impossible to predict in cats that are left untreated. Even if the disease is treated, your cat may experience severe complications or even death when the worms die. Prevention is the best medicine. Ask your veterinarian about heartworm disease prevention for your cat. It will help give your feline friend the best chance for a long and healthy life.
