Description
Barbara Barreto Oliveira and co-authors charted drug resistance in bacteria from cat urinary infections in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in a 2026 report. They examined 448 isolates from urine cultures collected between 2020 and 2024 and tested each against a panel of antibiotics.
Escherichia coli caused the largest share at 45.1 percent, followed by Proteus and Klebsiella species. Resistance to first-choice drugs was common, passing 50 percent for some, and 55.8 percent of all isolates resisted several drug classes at once. Meropenem still worked against every isolate tested. The pattern gives local vets a firmer base for choosing first treatments and for watching resistance trends.
