Core Tip	Several studies in dogs and cats have demonstrated that acute and chronic gastrointestinal diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are associated with alterations in the small intestinal and fecal microbial communities. Of interest is that these alterations are generally similar to the dysbiosis observed in humans with IBD or animal models of intestinal inflammation, suggesting that microbial responses in inflammatory conditions of the gut are conserved across mammalian host types, and dogs and cats may serve as models to study therapeutic approaches to spontaneous inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract.
