Can a dog catch any diseases from a stray cat who we think drank from his water bowl?

Posted on Apr 19, 2010 under Best Dog Water Bowl | 1 Comment

I usually pick up her bowl before we leave but was in a hurry and forgot and coming in the yard I let her off her leash and didnt see the stray cat on the porch and the dog ran right to the water bowl and drank. Should I be worried. She has all her shots but im worried about that feline lukemia or other cat diseases.

  • Pets can drink
    straight from the stream.

    tear.

    tract disorders. 

I wouldn’t worry about it. Just like you can’t get sick from your dog, your dog can’t catch diseases from a cat. (i can only think of rabies which can infect many mammals and your dog is protected). maybe fleas…but thats different.

Give the stray cat some food.
