I figure plenty of you here on the board have cats and have been to the vet with them.
I almost hate to ask this question because I don't want to get blasted for asking but here goes....
A family member has her stray cat at the vet's (she felt sorry for the injured cat and took it in) now she wants to bring it home when it is well enough. The cat had injuries that were badly infected, the vet put it on I.V.s and abx and is keeping the cat for a few days.
I asked her to ask the vet about testing it for lyme before bringing it home.
The vet told her ( here we go again, I'm just asking ok?) That cat's do not get Lyme, that it turns into heart worms in them.
I try to text all this from my cell phone and some web pages I can not pull up.
I am trying to find out more information on the web and hoped someone here might have information I can pass on to give to her before she brings this stray cat home.
Thanks for your help.
