Abstract

Twenty-four strains of Pasteurella multocida, one strain of P. canis, and one strain of P. pneumotropica were isolated from companion animals in a hospital from 2006 to 2013. Pasteurella spp. were mainly isolated from subcutaneous abscesses. These isolates were susceptible to almost all antimicrobial drugs. The antimicrobial drugs such as cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones were mainly administered for the treatment of Pasteurella infections. However, 3 of 26 cases died despite the administration of the drugs. It was considered that Pasteurella spp. had caused the infections in the companion animals and might sometimes cause severe infections.
