Goats play an important role in providing supplementary income in a landless farming system. Nowadays, goat farming has converted into a profitable industry. Goats suffer from various diseases, especially parasitic diseases, that adversely impact this industry. The cardiovascular system is a very important system for communication between different parts of the body in all animals. Several parasites, which are found in the cardiovascular system, cause morbidity and mortality in the goat population. These parasites may cause myocarditis, pericarditis and cardiomyopathy, which are the major causes of heart failure in goats. Some other protozoan and rickettsial parasites found in blood produce severe harm to goats. The present chapter elaborates on the various parasites of the goat's cardiovascular system. This chapter helps to understand the morphological identification, life cycle, pathogenesis, clinical signs, diagnostic methods, treatment and control aspects of parasites in the cardiovascular system of goats.
