Salmonella gastroenteritis and septicemia were diagnosed in two cats presented for necropsy. Both cats resided in the same household and were fed a home-prepared, raw meat-based diet. Salmonella was isolated from multiple organs in both cats and from samples of raw beef incorporated into the diet fed to one of the cats. Subtyping of the bacterial isolates yielded Salmonella newport from one cat and from the diet it had been fed. This report provides evidence that the practice of feeding raw meat-based diets to domestic cats may result in clinical salmonellosis.
两只送检尸检的猫被诊断出患有沙门氏菌性肠胃炎和败血症。这两只猫生活在同一家庭，均喂食自制的生肉为主的饮食。在两只猫的多个器官以及喂食给其中一只猫的饮食中的生牛肉样本中均分离出了沙门氏菌。对细菌分离株进行亚型分析，从一只猫及其所喂食的饮食中分离出了纽波特沙门氏菌。本报告提供了证据表明，给家猫喂食生肉为主的饮食的做法可能会导致临床沙门氏菌病。
