[CIS PIDD] [cis-pidd] Question regarding STAT1-GOF associated disease and domestic cat

[CIS-PIDD]

Dear colleagues,

we are taking care of a family with multiple individuals affected by STAT1-GOF associated disease. The family wishes to buy a cat as companion animal and was asking whether we had any objections to these plans. In the literature I did not come across reports that STAT1-GOF patients are particularly susceptible to typical infectious diseases transmitted by cats. However, as there may be unpublished experience in the community, I was wondering whether anyone has seen STAT1-GOF patients having trouble with toxoplasmosis, bartonella or other infectious diseases transmitted by cats.

Yours sincerely,

Jan
