Six feline cases of Influenza A (HPAI H5N1, genotype B3.13) have been diagnosed in domestic cats in Colorado during 2024. One of these cases was directly associated with a known infected commercial dairy facility. Two of the six cases were indoor-only cats with no direct exposures to the virus. Three of the six cases were known indoor/outdoor cats that hunted mice and/or small birds as prey and also spent time indoors with their owners. Five of the six cases have presented with similar clinical signs and disease progression: an initial complaint of lethargy and inappetence, followed by progressive respiratory signs in some and fairly consistent progressive neurologic signs in most. Several of these cases were tested for rabies preceding diagnosis with H5N1 infection due to the indistinguishable presentation once neurologic signs presented. HPAI H5N1 infection should be considered in domestic felines even if all of the risk factors or clinical signs are not present.

There is a high abundance of virus in Colorado at this time, predominantly being detected in domestic dairy cattle in commercial dairy herds with spillover into mammals and wild birds on and near these premises

Hopefully doesnt spill over into the Beef Herds

Rabies Alert about puppies from Texas....

On Wednesday, August 7, 2024, CDPHE confirmed rabies in a 12-week-old Colorado puppy that was part of a rescue litter brought from Texas to Colorado on July 16, 2024. The puppy, part of a litter of 12, was placed in foster care on July 20, 2024, and was subsequently adopted by his foster family. Initial clinical signs such as inappetence and lethargy were noted starting on July 29, 2024. He was seen by a veterinarian at that time and initial diagnostics were performed. The puppyโ€™s condition continued to deteriorate and he was presented for worsening neurologic signs on August 2, 2024, when he was ultimately euthanized due to his condition. The veterinarian did not report this case to CDA or CDPHE at the time they submitted the head for rabies testing; unfortunately, this led to a delay in diagnosis and critical response activities including tracing and human risk assessments.

Antigenic typing results were reported on August 8, 2024 and are consistent with the South Central Skunk Variant, confirming the puppy was infected in Texas prior to his arrival in Colorado.

Yes there is a severe Veterinary Shortage and Corporate rates are expensive but this somehow makes me very uncomfortable and not because I might lose some business....Vet Medicine is very tricky and thats why I love it.

Initiative 145 is dangerous for Colorado pets. When it comes to your petโ€™s safety and well-being, even routine procedures can become complicated. If passed, Initiative 145 would allow someone with inadequate training to perform surgery on your pet.

Before and after ugh....
