Cats presented with clinical signs and laboratory abnormalities similar to what has been seen in dogs, including respiratory illness (n = 20\/51), neutrophilia (n = 24\/31), monocytosis (n = 17\/31) and hyperglobulinemia (n = 16\/30). However, cats at diagnosis were typically significantly ill, with 31\/51 having disseminated infection, most commonly to the skin (n = 22). Additionally, 43\/44 cats that had serum antibody tests performed were positive, and median titer at diagnosis was 1:32 (range 1:4 to \u2a7e1:256). Serum antibody titers were significantly reduced (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2a7d0.001) in cats that responded to treatment compared with cats that did not clinically improve. Forty of 46 cats that were treated with oral fluconazole responded and did not require additional therapy. Fourteen cats developed recurrent disease and all but one had antifungal therapy successfully reinstituted.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and relevance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Coccidioidomycosis is a disease of concern for cats residing in the regions endemic for\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Coccidioides<\/jats:italic>\n                      species. Disease is most often disseminated at the time of diagnosis, possibly due to delays in presentation for care and recognition of the infection. Suspicion of disease, serum chemistries, blood cell counts, presence of antibody and imaging aid in the diagnosis of coccidioidomycosis in cats. Serum antibody reduction during treatment frequently correlated with an adequate response to medication. Consideration of coccidioidomycosis as a cause of illness will lead to earlier diagnosis and potentially better treatment outcomes in cats.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612x19829910","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,20]],"date-time":"2019-02-20T18:17:00Z","timestamp":1550686620000},"page":"129-137","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Clinical features of cats diagnosed with coccidioidomycosis in Arizona, 2004\u20132018"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Nichole","family":"Arbona","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5019-7567","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christine D","family":"Butkiewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Valley Fever Center for Excellence, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Minta","family":"Keyes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Cat Hospital of Tucson, Tucson, AZ, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lisa F","family":"Shubitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Valley Fever Center for Excellence, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5326\/0440226"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.00005-13"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/ciu681"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/cis1028"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vde.12356"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1196\/annals.1406.007"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","first-page":"196","article-title":"Diagnosis of disseminated canine coccidioidomycosis","volume":"128","author":"Reed RE.","year":"1956","unstructured":"Reed RE.
