Many of these parasites are responsible for zoonoses, and stray cats can be a source of environmental contamination. The prevalence of parasites in 139 stray colony cats in the city of Milan, northern Italy, was investigated by faecal examination. The overall prevalence of endoparasites was 50.4%, with 11 different parasites found. Parasites with zoonotic potential were detected in 49.6% of cats. Concurrent infections with two or more zoonotic parasites were recorded in 14.3% of cats. Among the parasites found, the most common was\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Toxocara cati<\/jats:italic>\n                    (33.1%;\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;0.0001).
