Abstract

Urinary tract infection in 63 dogs and 41 cats were surveyed for breed, age and the presence of basal diseases, and the bacteria isolates from the urine were examined for antibiotic sensitivity. The infected cases were the most predominant in shih tzu breed, and more aged animals. No sex difference was seen in the dog. In cats however, many cases were under 2 years old, 70% cases were male. Twenty percent of thecanine and feline had basal diseases and many dogs had urinary calculi. From most canine and feline cases Enterobacteriaceae and gram positive cocci were isolated. Specific isolated from dogs and cats, were Streptococcus canis and Xantomonas spp., respectively. Most isolates were resistant to OTC, CEX, TP and KM but sensitive to orbifloxacin (OBFX), a new quinolon derivative.
