Abstract

Dog and cats are well known for their role in the transmission of infections worldwide. It is important to observe that many diseases possess major problem of health in Dogs and cats worldwide. This review aims to summarize the current knowledge on the use and indications for antimicrobials to treat sick dogs and cats, drug-resistant bacteria of concern among companion animals, and transmission of antimicrobial resistance between animals and humans. The bacterial strains that cause antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in dogs and cats have not gotten as much attention as antimicrobial resistance in livestock. Bacterial infections resulting from dog and cat bites are not common, as their oral cavities harbor a substantial abundance of microbial taxa. However, there is growing concern in both veterinary and public health circles over the emergence of AMRin cats and dogs, particularly in relation to infections like methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), multidrug-resistant E. coli (MDR), and Klebsiella pneumoniae
