My Cat urine's tested positive for E coli.
I collected the probe from the floor, which is built in ceramic tiles.
The scientific records I am aware state for abnormal presence of E coli only in case of very young cats. Of course, the E coli infection shall be doubled by clinical signs to account for an actual disease.
The vet is doubting about significance of E coli presence, given the circumstances above.
I am scratching my head: E coli is usual in the environment- however, can I totally exclude urinary tract infection in my 2 years old Cat?
The is the one to decide the treatment, if needed. But I think he can make a much better decision if I can provide some scientific articles about E coli in cats.
Knowing more about E coli pathology in cats can empower me to better manage cat's environment - and mine, of course.
Question is, to your kindness: can you point me to an open access article or trusted web site dealing scientifically with the E coli cat's pathology?
Thank you very much!
