Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a multi-drug resistant bacterial infection primarily adapted to humans but capable of infecting dogs and cats.
Key Facts
- MRSA is a strain of Staphylococcus aureus that has developed resistance to methicillin and many other antibiotics.
- Healthy pets can often clear MRSA infections naturally within a few weeks due to their immune systems.
- Humans are more likely to transmit MRSA to pets than vice versa due to the bacteria's human adaptation.
