Question by Lis Acres: Bringing in stray cats – possible diseases that I can bring into my home?
A mother cat and her kitten moved into my shed.
We’re having some freezing temperatures over here and I would like nothing more than bringing her in the house, but I’m concerned about the health of my current animals.
I have no cats, only dogs – what are possible diseases that can be passed from cats to dogs?

Well, the best thing to do, is when you decide to bring them in, put them in a room all to themselves, where your dogs cannot go and interact with the cat & kitten.
Keep it that way until you’re able to get the cat & kitten to the vet for a general health check up.
We could state possible diseases, but it really is nonsense unless the cat actually has any of them, and for all you know, these felines could be exceptionally healthy for strays.
