Heartworms are parasites transmitted by mosquitoes. Heartworm infection can kill dogs and cats. Heartworm is a nematode worm (Dirofilaria immitis) that lives inside blood vessels in the lungs of infected animals. In severe infections the adult heartworms can even be found living inside the heart.
Heartworms are classified as nematodes (roundworms) and are but one of many species of roundworms. The specific roundworm causing heartworm in dogs and cats is known as Dirofilaria immitis.
