Two cases of Aujeszky's disease in a cat and a dog belonging to the same owner are reported. The two animals each were five months of age. The symptoms shown by the cat were typical of Aujeszky's disease: intense itching, salivation and the head bent to one side. The main symptoms shown by the dog consisted in salivation, ptosis of one eye, a drooping ear, the head bent to one side and ataxia. As itching was not observed in the dog and the animal had spent the first months of its life in wooded surroundings, it could also have been affected with rabies, although it had been inoculated with LEP-Flury vaccine forty days prior to importation. It is of importance to the practitioner to know that itching may be absent in dogs with Aujeszky's disease and that rabies should also be suspected in these cases. Only a laboratory diagnosis will be conclusive. Studies were negative for rabies, the virus of Aujeszky's disease being found to be present in the two cases. The source of infection probably consisted in contaminated pork offal (larynges).

Prolonged penile prolapse in horses has been reported in association with administration of phenothiazine tranquilizers, trauma, neuropathies, severe general debilitation or exhaustion, starvation, rabies, herpes myeloencephalitis, equine infectious anemia, and purpura hemorrhagica. A 5-year-old gelding was admitted for treatment of prolonged penile prolapse of 12 days' duration that developed after acepromazine maleate was administered to allow examination of a laceration that had resulted in severe blood loss. The horse was sedated, and the penis was replaced in the preputial cavity by use of a combination of massage and bandaging. Treatment was successful, and recovery was complete.

We report an atypical case of paralytic rabies presenting with trismus followed by limb weakness, areflexia, ophthalmoparesis, and bilateral ptosis. Atypical presentations and history of rabies postexposure prophylaxis led to delayed diagnosis. Nucleocapsid and glycoprotein genes of rabies viruses from the patient's and biting dog's brains were of identical sequences.

On January 4, 2019 an eight-year-old girl child was bitten by a suspected rabid dog over the left parotid region. After a 17-h delay, the child was brought for rabies postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) at Civil Hospital Theog and was administered complete PEP. On January 29, 2019, the child was again brought to Theog Hospital with complaints of having fever, difficulty in walking, neck drop, and ptosis. On examination, pediatrician found photophobia, phonophobia, and hydrophobia and subsequently the patient died of cardiac arrest. On postmortem examination, the facial nerve was found dissected and injured at the inner end of the parotid gland. A severed end toward the brain was swollen and edematous. The entire brain was extracted and sent to Central Research Institute Kasauli for confirmation of rabies, where it tested positive for rabies by Fluorescent Antibodies Test and Biological Test. In situations where sensitive parts such as the face are involved, a thorough wound wash with soap and water and application of antiseptics along with immediate PEP may save some lives by not allowing the virus enough time to attach to and infect the nerve cells.
