FELINE BLASTOMYCOSIS

Blastomycosis is a fungal disease caused by the organism Blastomyces dermatitidis. While the first human case was reported in 1898, this disease was not observed in the cat until 1961. During the last 20 years, a number of cases of feline blastomycosis have been reported, and we now know that the disease is more common than originally thought. ................
