Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 I know this is off the wall but, it's never stopped me before. LOL We have had 2 different people writing Angie and myself about cats with RP. Well, we have a feral cat at work that had a bad ear that was floppy and obviously the cat felt terrible, soooooo we wrestled it into a cage and took it to our vets and it wasn't RP, LOL but, I did get a chance to ask our vet about this and she said that she had seen one case of it in cats. She said that it had involved the cats legs......and I ask her did she mean by legs........ knees and she said yes. She said it was quite a few years ago and that she didn't remember the details about it though. Darn!!!! Most animals don't get human diseases and most humans don't get animal diseases. I've never heard of a dog with RP, just cats. I am just wondering what the correlation is between cats, us and RP????? I just find this very interesting and thought I'd throw it out to everyone. Give you something to think about. LOL Like I said, I found this interesting. W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read it before somewhere also, I am allergic to cats, so I can't be around them. My airway comes in danger and starts closing up. So I think its double weird they would get RP???
