Mandatory treatment for echinococcosis for cats and dogs imported from Sweden

Publisert: 09.03.11

As of Friday 11 March 20011 all cats and dogs older than three months that have been in Sweden and that cross the Norwegian/Swedish border into Norway must be treated for fox tapeworm. This tapeworm is not dangerous for the cats and dogs themselves, but it can cause serious illness in humans. The owners of the cats and dogs may treat the animals themselves.
