No, cats cannot get syphilis as it is a sexually transmitted infection that primarily affects humans. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum and can be transmitted through sexual contact with an infected individual.
However, cats are not susceptible to this disease. Cats are mainly at risk for certain viral infections, such as feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia virus (FeLV), as well as various bacterial and parasitic infections. It is important for cat owners to be aware of the potential risks to their feline companions and to consult with a veterinarian for proper preventive measures and care.
