Abstract	This investigation was carried out in order to determinate the prevalence of gastrointestinal heminths in cats (Felis catus) attended at the Veterinary Policlinic of the University of Zulia (PVU), during the period of January to December 2004. Fecal samples were collected directly from the rectum of 64 cats, and then were collected directly from the rectum of 64 cats, and then were processed by the method of fecal flotation with saturated saline solution, obtaining a general prevalence of gastrointestinal heminths of 46.9%. The following helminths were observed: Ancylostoma spp. (29.7%), Trichuris spp. (10.9%), Toxocara spp. (7.8%) and Physaloptera spp. (6.3%). Significant statistical differences of the prevalence values were not observed among sex (42.9% in females and 50% in males) neither among racial groups (48.1% in mixed-breed cats and 41.7% in pure-breed cats). General prevalence in cats by age was: cats younger than 1 year old, 52.6%; between 1 and 2 years, 50%; between 2 and 4 years, 35.7%; and older than 4 years old, 47.1%. Statistical differences were not observed between ages. Toxocara spp. was only found in animals younger than 1 year old and Trichuris spp. was detected in animals older than 2 years.
