This bacterium is an important cause of CIRDC and commonly produces a dry, honking cough.
What is Bordetella bronchiseptica?
Highly contagious feline parvoviral may cause emesis, severe dehydration and a marked reduction in WBC.
What is feline panleukopenia?
This procedure is one of the most effective ways to prevent FeLV, FIV and feline coronavirus exposure from an unfamiliar cat entering a household.
What is testing and assessing the new cat before introduction?
This fatal zoonotic viral disease attacks the central nervous system of mammals, including dogs, cats and humans.
What is rabies?
Because viral infections do not respond directly to antibiotics, fluids, nutrition and nursing care are collectively known by this term.
What is supportive care?
Bacteria caught through urine-contaminated water may cause acute kidney and liver failure.
What is leptospirosis?
This feline respiratory virus remains latent in the body and may reactivate during periods of stress.
FHV1 - FVR
FeLV commonly spreads through this type of behaviour between socially friendly cats.
What is mutual grooming or prolonged close contact?
Veterinary assistants should wear gloves and appropriate protective equipment when handling urine from a suspected patient.
What is leptospirosis?
This commonly prescribed antimicrobial is used to treat several infections, including Lyme disease, leptospirosis and Chlamydia felis.
What is doxycycline?
This tick-borne disease may develop high fever, lethargy, swollen lymph nodes, and lameness
What is Lyme disease?
Oral ulcers, drooling and occasional shifting-leg lameness are particularly associated with this feline respiratory virus.
What is feline calicivirus?
This is the principal route of FIV transmission.
What is a deep bite wound?
Dogs do not directly transmit this zoonotic disease to people, but infected dogs indicate that humans and animals may share exposure to infected vector
What is Lyme disease?
When administering a doxycycline tablet or capsule to a cat, food or water should follow to help prevent this serious complication.
What is esophagitis?
This severe complication of Lyme disease causes protein loss through the kidneys and can progress to kidney failure.
What is Lyme nephritis?
This intracellular bacterium commonly causes severe conjunctivitis that may begin in one eye and spread to the other.
What is Chlamydia felis?
This is the principal transmission route of the common feline coronavirus associated with FIP development.
What is the fecal–oral route?
In dogs, the disease presents in two primary clinical forms: (use correct vet term)
What is encephaliticor furious rabies and paralytic or dumb rabies?
This veterinary procedure removes fluid from the chest of a cat with pleural effusion and respiratory distress.
What is thoracocentesis?
Bacteria possess a unique outer membrane that makes them inherently more resistant to many antibiotics
What is gram-negative bacteria?
Infection with feline panleukopenia virus during fetal development can cause this permanent coordination disorder.
What is cerebellar hypoplasia?
This strong Feline virus requires disinfectants proven effective against non-enveloped viruses and can persist in contaminated environments.
What is feline panleukopenia virus?
This clinical form of rabies may cause a dropped jaw, difficulty swallowing, excessive salivation and progressive paralysis without obvious aggression.
What is paralytic or dumb rabies?
These antiviral medications have changed FIP from an almost uniformly fatal disease into one that can often be successfully treated.
What are GS-441524 and remdesivir?
