Feline and Canine Rabies in New York State, USA
viruses Article Feline and Canine Rabies in New York State, USA Scott Brunt † , Heather Solomon † , Kathleen Brown and April Davis * Wadsworth Center, New York State Department of Health, Slingerlands, NY 12159, USA; [email protected] (S.B.); [email protected] (H.S.); [email protected] (K.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-518-485-6464 † These authors contributed equally to this work. Abstract: In New York State, domestic animals are no longer considered rabies vector species, but given their ubiquity with humans, rabies cases in dogs and cats often result in multiple individuals requiring post-exposure prophylaxis. For over a decade, the New York State rabies laboratory has variant-typed these domestic animals to aid in epidemiological investigations, determine exposures, and generate demographic data. We produced a data set that outlined vaccination status, ownership, and rabies results. Our data demonstrate that a large percentage of felines submitted for rabies testing were not vaccinated or did not have a current rabies vaccination, while canines were largely vaccinated. Despite massive vaccination campaigns, free clinics, and education, these companion animals still occasionally contract rabies. Barring translocation events, we note that rabies-positive cats and dogs in New York State have exclusively contracted a raccoon variant. While the United States has made tremendous strides in reducing its rabies burden, we hope these data will encourage responsible pet ownership including rabies vaccinations to reduce unnecessary animal mortality, long quarantines, and post-exposure prophylaxis in humans.

Time has passed so quickly since the Global Alliance launched World Rabies Day over five years ago, but clearly this initiative has changed the world of rabies and continues to serve as an excellent platform for individuals and countries to focus more attention on programs aimed at preventing rabies (www.worldrabiesday.org). We have managed to create a large network of public health professionals located in various locations around the world that are willing to share experiences and, where possible, resources to help in the fight against rabies. We have seen countries begin rabies prevention programs that would never have even considering to do so a few years ago. Through the Partners for Rabies Prevention, we have developed a freely accessible on-line resource that provides step by step strategic assistance for countries and individuals that want to make a difference in the rabies situation in their country. Thanks to Dr Katie Hampson and the University of Glasgow team, we are in the final stages of completing an overview of the global burden of rabies.

Rabies Background and General Virus Information Rabies Prevention and Control in Florida
Rabies Background and General Virus Information Rabies Prevention and Control in Florida Rabies Background and General Virus Information This individual chapter is part of the Rabies Prevention and Control in Florida guidance documents. The purpose of this compendium is to provide recommended policies and procedures for rabies prevention and control in Florida. It is intended primarily for use by county health department (CHD) staff, animal control specialists, veterinarians, health care providers and others with related responsibilities or interests. This publication, while produced and distributed by the Florida Department of Health (DOH) Division of Disease Control and Health Protection, has been developed by a multidisciplinary Florida Rabies Advisory Committee that represents the major agencies, institutions and organizations involved with rabies prevention and control in the state. The individual chapters and associated resources are routinely updated and posted on the following website: *www.floridahealth.gov/diseases-and-conditions/rabies/professionals.html. A. Background—United States Human exposure to rabies most frequently involves the bite of a rabid animal. Exact figures are not available, but bites from some type of domestic or wild animal to Florida residents and visitors (especially children) are common each year. Dogs are the major source of animal bites in Florida, followed by cats, rodents, raccoons, bats, and other species. The threat of rabies transmission from animals to humans warrants the maintenance of a statewide

Feral Cats: Impacts of an Invasive Species
Feral Cats: Impacts of an Invasive Species The domestic cat (Felis catus) is the most prevalent pet in the U.S., numbering between 148 and 188 million individuals.1 Originally bred from wild cats (Felis silvestris) in the Near East approximately 10,000 years ago,2 domestic cats are now con- sidered a distinct species. As a domesticated animal, cats have no native range and are considered a non-native, invasive, feral species when allowed outdoors to interact with native ecosystems. An invasive species is an organism that causes or is likely to cause ecological or economic harm, or endanger human health in an environment where it is not native.3 Reproduction While indoor cats pose little threat Domestic cats can reproduce proli- to native wildlife, free-ranging and fically.

Food & Nutrition Feral Cats
FOOD & NUTRITION FERAL CATS & ELDERS Food: A good quality of food, both dry and canned is always recommended. We recommend the book, “The New Natural Cat”, by Anitra Frazier as an excellent guidebook for cats in general. The many recipes and nutritional information will be a worthwhile investment in your feral cats. Your financial circumstances will probaBly determine what type of food you are able to provide your colony. We want the best for our feral cats. Being informed about negative ingredients in certain types of cat food and how it is manufactured is important information everyone should know about. Most of us are familiar with the ingredients label – i.e. the first ingredient is the major portion of the food and so on. Even with inexpensive food, the first ingredient can be a factor to consider such as a by-product instead of corn meal as the first ingredient in dry and wet food. Your choices will be determined by how many feral cats you feed and what you can afford! Food Banks can also be a resource for food. You can mix sardines, Makerel and other products into the wet food and some banks carry cat food. Poultry can also be mixed into the food. Be creative if you are on a tight budget. Go to meat markets and bring home scraps to cook and mix. Feral Cat Health on a budget: 1. Cleanliness of Bowls is number one. I wash all of the food bowls in the dishwasher to destroy bacteria. If you feed in plastic containers, either discard or use soap and water for cleaning.
