“…In the present study, conjunctivitis first appeared on PID 5 to 7 in most cats, reached a peak from PID 7 to 10, and then tended to recover, with some exceptions in which it persisted until PID 28. This accords with the typical course of experimental feline C. felis infection reported by several authors [5,8,13,15]. Most naturally infected cats which suffer from chlamydial conjunctivitis exhibit unilateral conjunctivitis [3,9,15]; however, the cats used in this study exhibited bilateral conjunctivitis.…”

“…Experimental inoculation with C. felis produces conjunctivitis, mild rhinitis and fever of relatively late onset in cats [5,6,13]. In the present study, conjunctivitis first appeared on PID 5 to 7 in most cats, reached a peak from PID 7 to 10, and then tended to recover, with some exceptions in which it persisted until PID 28.…”

“…Most of the chlamydial strains of feline origin were isolated from cases of conjunctivitis [2,5,8,10], and conjunctivitis has been recognized as one of the most documented clinical signs in cats. However, experimental C. psittaci infection to kittens produces fever, lethargy, lameness, and reduction in weight gain besides ocular signs [11]. In the present study, 2 of 8 strains were isolated from nasal swabs and 5 of 6 strains were isolated from conjunctival swabs with upper respiratory signs.…”
