Can dogs or cats become infected with Salmonella? What are the symptoms in dogs and cats?
Yes, dogs and cats can get salmonellosis. They also can carry Salmonella without getting sick. Pets that become ill may stop eating and may develop diarrhea, fever, abdominal pain, and vomiting. Some cats do not have diarrhea, but have decreased appetite, fever, and excess salivation. If your pet appears ill, seek veterinary care. Most ill pets recover completely.
