  • Title: Cat or dog ownership and seroprevalence of ehrlichiosis, Q fever, and cat-scratch disease.
    Author: Skerget M, Wenisch C, Daxboeck F, Krause R, Haberl R, Stuenzner D.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2003 Oct; 9(10):1337-40. PubMed ID: 14609477.
    Abstract:
    Concerns have been raised about the role of domestic cats or dogs in the acquisition of zoonoses, in particular in pregnant women or immune-suppressed persons. We report that cat or dog ownership is not associated with an increased seroprevalence of antibodies to Anaplasma phagozytophilum, Coxiella burnetii, and Bartonella henselae in symptom-free persons in Styria, Austria.
