There is a lack of evidence that FIP as such is transmissible from cat to cat, although it may explain rare mini-outbreaks of FIP. [8] However, the virus, FCov, is transmissible from cat to cat. A study on 59 FIP infected cats found that, unlike FCoV, feces from FIP infected cats were not infectious to laboratory cats via oronasal route. [9]

Campylobacter upsaliensis is found worldwide and is among the predominant Campylobacter spp. associated with enteritis in companion animals. [11] Diarrhetic dogs are considered a possible source for human infections, though there may also be host-specific strains. Sources for companion animals include raw or undercooked meats, especially poultry.
The average life expectancy of all domestic cat breeds was 11.7 years. Crossbreeds and Siamese came very close to that mark at 11.9 and 11.7 years, respectively.
Female cats typically outlive male cats, and crossbred cats typically outlive purebred cats. [2] [4] It has also been found that the greater a cat's weight, the lower its life expectancy on average. [4] The current oldest verified cat alive is Flossie, who was born in 1995 in the United Kingdom. [10]
If you're wondering which countries have the longest life expectancy for cats, the UK was ranked at number one with 11.74 years. The US follows closely behind with 11.18 years, and Japan in third ...

Campylobacter can spread through contact with dog feces. It usually does not spread from one person to another. However, activities such as changing an infected person's diapers or sexual contact with an infected person can lead to infection. Regardless of where they are from, any puppies and dogs may carry Campylobacter germs. [21]
