i am starting a Persian cattery and just want my cats to be healthy.

Answer
Dear Caroline

The best source of information about G Strep is this link http://catvet.homestead.com/Strep.html

However I would say that though it is not rare, it is also not common and in my 35 years of breeding have never had to deal with it.  I hope that puts it into proportion for you.

Regards
