The mark consists of a paw print, composed of a large crescent shape with the outside curve facing left, and having four, oval, evenly-spaced "toes", ranging in size from largest on the left to smallest on the right. The left-most toe is placed above the mid-point of the crescent's outside curve, and the right-most toe is placed slightly to the left of the crescent's top end point. The paw is in the light green color. The logotype is composed of two lines of justified type that are placed across the paw. The top line of type is composed of the large capital letters "CAPC", and is in the font Trajan Regular, extended 177%. The second line of type is composed of the words "Companion Animal Parasite Council" and is placed beneath the first line with a small amount of space between the lines. The "Companion Animal Parasite Council" is in both upper and lower case letters, and uses the font Arial Regular, extended 168%. The placement of the logotype across the paw centers the crossbar of the capital letter "A" in "CAPC" on the vertical midpoint of the crescent. The horizontal alignment of the logotype is visually centered (rather than mathematically centered) with the lower case "L" in "Animal" (in "Companion Animal Parasite Council") touching the right edge of the crescent. The large type (CAPC) is a dark green color; the small type (Companion Animal Parasite Council) is a dark brown/black color. .
