<scp><i>Mycobacterium bovis</i></scp> Infection in Cats: Zoonotic Transmission
These findings highlight the risk of zoonotic tuberculosis originating from companion animals, even in the absence of direct exposure to livestock. The results underscore the need to strengthen diagnostic and surveillance strategies in non-traditional species and emphasise the importance of adopting a comprehensive One Health approach to prevent and mitigate transmission between animals and humans, particularly in regions where bovine tuberculosis is endemic.
