respiratory diseases. It is extremely contagious, especially
in young kittens and the infection rate is very high.
It causes a local infection of the mucous conjunctiva of
the eyes
but may also involve the lungs. Chlamydophila can
be transmitted
to humans by direct contact. Vaccination is the preferred
method
of prevention.
