In recent years, compared to dogs, the probability of cats getting rabies has been much higher. A large part of the reason is because most owners do not inject their cats with rabies vaccines. Because in their opinion, cats seldom go out and walk around, there is no need to vaccinate them. It is precisely because of this idea that the number of sick cats has increased.
Rabies is caused by an RNA virus, which belongs to the family Rhabdoviridae. In areas with good and comprehensive pet immunization programs, wild animals are the main breeding ground and transmission vector for the virus; in areas without complete immunization programs, In certain areas, domestic animals are generally used as transmission media.
Young cats are more susceptible than adult cats. There is a high concentration of rabies virus in the saliva of infected cats. In addition, they are common companion animals of humans and can pierce the skin with their teeth, so they are very harmful to humans. Therefore, we must pay more attention to regularly injecting rabies vaccines for cats to prevent the occurrence of the disease.
