Blood and fecal\nsamples were collected. Cats were then euthanatized,\nand postmortem examinations were performed.\nTissues were examined grossly and histologically\nfor signs of mycobacteriosis.

Evidence\nof tuberculosis was not seen in other cats at the residence,\nthe owner, or the attending veterinarian. The\nmost likely source of tuberculosis for the infected cat\nwas through the consumption of <jats:italic>M bovis<\/jats:italic>-infected\nwildlife carcasses or offal. Because <jats:italic>M bovis<\/jats:italic> is endemic\nin wildlife in northeastern Michigan, there is a risk\nof exposure to tuberculosis in companion animals,\ntheir owners, and attending veterinarians.
