Project Abstract

Abstract
Zoonotic diseases are infections that can be transmitted between animals and humans. With the increasing number of households owning pets, the risk of zoonotic diseases affecting pet owners is a growing concern. This research project aims to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of zoonotic diseases in pet owners. The study will focus on identifying the most common zoonotic diseases that can be transmitted from pets to humans and determining the factors that contribute to their transmission.

By identifying the most common zoonotic diseases and the factors contributing to their transmission, this study aims to contribute to the development of effective prevention and control strategies. The findings of this research will have implications for public health policy and guidelines regarding pet ownership. Further research in this area is needed to address the gaps identified in the literature and improve our understanding of zoonotic diseases in pet owners.
