| BACTERIAL | Campylobacter coli | Campylobacter coli is a gram-negative, microaerophilic, non-endospore-forming, S-shaped bacterial species within genus Campylobacter, that causes Enteric Campylobacteriosis in animals. Transmission: Campylobacteriosis bacteria are shed in the feces of infected animals. Cats can become infected by ingesting contaminated water or raw meat, or by coming into contact with contaminated feces. Humans can also contract campylobacteriosis from infected animals, so proper hygiene is important. Symptoms: Campylobacteriosis can cause diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and anorexia in cats. Kittens and those with underlying health issues are especially vulnerable. Treatment: Erythromycin or tylosin are often used to treat campylobacteriosis in cats. |  |  | |
