FELINE CHLAMYDOPHILOSIS - also read report from Felipedia.org
The bacterium is very fragile and cannot survive in the environment, so is transmitted by direct contact between cats. Carrier cats that don't show symptoms but harbour the bacteria in their conjunctiva can shed the bacteria in their eye discharge. The main symptom is conjunctivitis, which is due to inflammation of the conjunctiva, the membrane lining the inside of the eyelid. This is invariably associated with an eye discharge. Usually only one eye is affected
Other common symptoms include:
Coughing and/or difficulty breathing
Runny nose (rhinitis) and/or sneezing
Pneumonia(in young kittens 2 to 4 weeks old; which may potentially be fatal)
Fever(may occur as the disease progresses)
Anorexia(loss of appetite; may occur as the disease progresses)
Diagnosis is usually based on clinical symptoms, as well as the cat's medical history.
If left untreated, the infection may become chronic, lasting several weeks or months.
