Upper Respiratory Infection
Written by catniptrails
I have 3 cats that contracted an upper respiratory infection. Can my dogs catch it from the cats? Is it contagious from cats to dogs?
Thanks

Catniptrails, usually a virus or an infection is species specific (cats get cat ones and dogs get dog ones) with the exception of Rabies. You can however pass it to other cats outside your home on your hands and clothing. An upper respiratory infection may require antibiotics in order to get better and usually takes about 10 to 14 days. Hope your kitties feel better soon!

Thanks for the reassurance that my dogs are safe. I do have the sick ones on Baytril and am hoping for the best.
Thanks again!
