We report isolation of a New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-5-producing carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli sequence type 167 from companion animals in the United States. Reports of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in companion animals are rare. We describe a unique cluster of bla-producing E. coli in a veterinary hospital.

Medication compliance by cat owners prescribed treatment for home administration.
J Vet Intern Med
January 2025
School of Veterinary Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand.
Background: Most veterinary literature examining medication compliance has described the phenomenon in dogs. The evidence available regarding factors affecting cat owner medication compliance is limited.
Objectives: Identify and describe factors associated with cat owners' noncompliance with veterinary recommendations for pet medications, as well as client-reported barriers and aids to administering medications prescribed by primary care veterinarians.

The relationship between humans and their pets has long fascinated researchers, particularly in exploring how attachment varies according to the type of pet. Cats and dogs exhibit unique behavioral and social traits that influence the dynamics of human-pet relationships. Moreover, specific human characteristics have been found to affect this attachment.

Article Synopsis
- Melanoma is a severe skin cancer that starts from melanocytes, and existing rodent models have limitations in mirroring human conditions.
- Researchers have created a transgenic pig model that mimics human melanoma using somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), enabling better study of the disease.
- This new model allows for the investigation of melanoma development and response to treatments, providing a significant resource for advancing cancer research and drug testing.
