Reassessment of the genetic basis of natural rifampin resistance in the genus Rickettsia

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 4, August 2024.
Contrary to previous studies, the natural resistance of Rickettsia, a genus of intracellular bacteria, to the antibiotic rifampin is not solely due to the Leu‐973 residue in the RNA polymerase β subunit. Abstract Rickettsia, a genus of obligate intracellular bacteria, includes species that cause significant human diseases.

Cat fleas (Ctenocephalides felis clade ‘Sydney’) are dominant fleas on dogs and cats in New South Wales, Australia: Presence of flea-borne Rickettsia felis, Bartonella spp. but absence of Coxiella burnetii DNA

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2021
The cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis) is the most common flea species parasitising both domestic cats and dogs globally. Fleas are known vectors of zoonotic pathogens such as vector-borne Rickettsia spp. and Bartonella spp.

ACVIM consensus statement on the diagnosis of immune thrombocytopenia in dogs and cats

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 1958-1981, July/August 2024.
Abstract Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is the most common acquired primary hemostatic disorder in dogs. Immune thrombocytopenia less commonly affects cats but is an important cause of mortality and treatment‐associated morbidity in both species. Immune thrombocytopenia remains a diagnosis of exclusion for which diagnostic guidelines are lacking ...

Survey of flea infestation in cats and dogs in Western Andalusia, Spain: Seasonality and other risk factors for flea infestation

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 244-251, June 2024.
This work supports the preference of the predominant flea species in pets for seasons with higher temperatures and lower percentages of rainfall. C. felis was the dominant flea species, whereas dogs exhibited a greater diversity of flea species. The number of female fleas was higher than males in all identified species and hosts.

Bartonella quintana and Rickettsia felis in Gabon

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We detected Rickettsia felis DNA in Ctenocephalides felis and Bartonella quintana DNA in 3 Pulex irritans fleas taken from a pet Cercopithecus cephus monkey in Gabon, sub-Saharan Africa. This is the first report of B. quintana in the human flea.

Survey of ectoparasites affecting dog and cat populations living in sympatry in Gamo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 3, May 2024.
Findings of the present study demonstrated an overall prevalence of 36.7%, 69.7% and 4.7% ticks, fleas and lice on dogs, respectively. Similarly, on cats, an overall prevalence of 2.7% ticks and 21.8% fleas was recorded. The abundance of C. felis was significantly higher (p < 0.001) on dogs, whereas in cats, the abundance of E.

Cat–wildlife interactions and zoonotic disease risk: a call for more and better community science data

Mammal Review, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 93-104, April 2024.
Domestic cats play a significant role in wildlife predation and they are likely involved in disease transmission. Abstract Due to their close interaction with both wildlife and humans, free‐ranging domestic animals are well‐suited to act as conveyors of zoonotic pathogens.
