Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial resistance among Pseudomonas (P.) aeruginosa isolated from dogs and cats. A total of 45 (6.2%) P. aeruginosa was isolated from 710 dogs and 21 cats with clinical signs. Resistance to one or more of the antimicrobials tested was observed in 26 (57.8%) P. aeruginosa. Resistance to cefepime was the most frequent (44.4%), followed by ofloxacin (22.2%), levofloxacin (17.8%), norfloxacin (8.9%), ciprofloxacin (6.7%), ceftazidime, aztreonam, colistin, polymixin B and gentamicin (4.4%, respectively), while resistance to piperacillin/tazobactam, imipenem, tobramycin and amikacin was 2.2%, respectively. All isolates were susceptibility to doripenem and meropenem. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing should be a crucial step in selection of appropriate antimicrobial therapy in veterinary medicine. Also, the prudent use of antimicrobials and continuous monitoring for companion animals are required.
