I have 2 foster babies (7 weeks old).
The boy was just not doing well. When I took him in to the vet we found a pus abscess. The vet feels it is staph infection.
We are having a culture done and he is on medication, but assuming that it IS staph, how contagious is he to other cats? What precautions should I take in handling?
Admittedly I should have remembered to ask these things, but until after the hioliday I thought I would tap your brians for info.
Any suggestions?
