Abstract

Companion animal staphylococcal isolate antibiograms were screened retrospectively to determine the frequency of methicillin‐resistant (MR) infection byStaphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus intermedius, andStaphylococcus schleiferi. Rates of MR were:S. aureus35%,S. intermedius17%, andS. schleiferi40%. Frequency of isolation of methicillin‐resistantS. aureus(MRSA) from dogs and cats was similar, whereas methicillin‐resistantS. intermedius(MRSI) and methicillin‐resistantS. schleiferi(MRSS) were significantly more common in dogs. MRSS was more commonly associated with superficial (skin and ear canal) infections, whereas MRSA was more commonly associated with deep infections. The MR strain resistance pattern to other classes of antibiotics was also investigated. MRSA was resistant to the most classes of antibiotics, followed by MRSI, while MRSS maintained the most favourable susceptibility profile. MR staphylococci may pose a significant risk to animal and public health. Therefore, to avoid selecting for resistant strains in cases of suspected staphylococcal infection, clinicians should consider culture and susceptibility testing early in the course of treatment.
