"Stray Kitten in Oakland County Tests Positive for Rabies: Stay Informed"

A stray kitten found in Oakland County, Michigan, was euthanized after developing symptoms of rabies. The kitten initially appeared healthy but later became lethargic, had a decreased appetite, and exhibited neurological symptoms such as tremors and incoordination. Rabies is a viral disease transmitted through the bite of an infected animal and is almost always fatal once symptoms appear. It is important to keep pets' rabies vaccinations up-to-date and seek immediate medical attention if exposed to a potentially rabid animal. Michigan law requires ferrets and dogs to be vaccinated against rabies.
