<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Diarrhea is a common complaint in our canine friends. It can be a once-off episode of diarrhea or a more chronic issue that has been going on for days. Many causes of diarrhea are due to changes in diet or dogs eating something they shouldn’t but some cases can be due to a more serious disease. We’ll discuss the common symptoms, causes, and treatments now.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you been thinking of moving to Ireland to work as a vet? Well, Ireland has vast opportunities for veterinary surgeons. There’s demand for small animal vets, mixed vets and large animal vets alike. You can work as an employee, locum or avail of the many internships, residencies, new <a href="https://thevetservice.com/graduate-jobs/">graduate</a> programmes and partnership opportunities available. You can choose to live in a bustling city like Cork, Galway or Dublin or perhaps in a small idyllic town where the vet is an integral part of the community.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Rabies in cats is a fatal, viral disease that can spread across animal species and humans alike. This means it is called a ‘zoonotic’ disease. It has a rapid onset of action and once a rabies infection has been established, there is no specific treatment to cure it. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For this reason, we rely on the<strong> </strong><a href="https://hub.bettervet.com/cat-vaccines" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">prevention of rabies in cats</a><strong> </strong>(and dogs!) using vaccination. To do this and educate ourselves about rabies, we need to know exactly how rabies is spread amongst humans and animals and if it could be transmitted to humans by an infected pet sneezing on us.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As a veterinarian, writing this article was an interesting one. Whilst the answer to the question seems obvious enough to us, it&#8217;s a common question that vets get asked. Writing articles about pets isn&#8217;t always about answering the common questions though, sometimes I have to do a lot of research. This article was part of a whole series of articles we wrote for BetterVet about rabies, which will hopefully provide an interesting source of information for pet owners. </p>
