Tetanus is rare in cats owing to their innate resistance. Clinical diagnosis may not be obvious in the early stages of the disease when characteristic signs of generalised tetanus are absent. However, the history of a penetrating/neglected wound and the presence of persistent involuntary muscle rigidity in a mentally alert animal should always lead to the suspicion of tetanus. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are the keys to a successful outcome.
由于猫具有天生的抵抗力，破伤风在猫中很少见。在疾病早期，当缺乏全身性破伤风的特征性体征时，临床诊断可能并不明显。然而，对于有穿透性/被忽视伤口史且精神警觉的动物存在持续性非自主性肌肉强直的情况，应始终怀疑破伤风。及时诊断和治疗是取得成功结果的关键。
