enteropatógenos, felinos, zoonosis, virulencia, epidemiologíaResumen
Los patógenos de eliminación fecal figuran como una de las principales clases de
microorganismos patogénicos para los humanos y animales, causando graves enfermedades
entéricas y ocasionalmente, extra entéricas. Este grupo de microorganismos se caracteriza por
mantenerse viable y con capacidad infectante en condiciones hostiles del ambiente, posterior
a la eliminación por las heces de animales con y sin signos entéricos. Debido al contacto cada
vez más estrecho con los humanos, los animales de compañía son eslabones importantes en la
cadena de transmisión de patógenos entéricos. Los gatos domésticos representan un grupo
importante de animales transportadores de patógenos entéricos con potencial zoonótico, una
vez que poseen hábitos de caza, de establecer territorialidad y de auto limpieza. Entre los
patógenos de transmisión fecal de gatos domésticos con potencial zoonótico para humanos, se
destacan: Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp., Campylobacter spp., Clostridium spp.
Rhodococcus equi, Giardia sp. y Cryptosporidium spp. El presente estudio revisó los
principales patógenos bacterianos y parasitarios de gatos domésticos con énfasis en los
aspectos de virulencia, epidemiológicos, signos clínicos, control y reflejos en Salud Pública.
