In our analysis, the monthly counts of raccoons testing positive were associated with the risk of a cat testing positive.
Two models were developed using different groupings of temporal stages of raccoon rabies in a county.
Annual surveillance summaries of animal rabies also suggest a persistent elevation in rabid cats following in the wake of the spreading raccoon epizootic.
The density of raccoon rabies cases is illustrated in the main map as a grey scale using the density scale at bottom right.
An epizootic algorithm defined a time-series of successive intervals of epizootic and inter-epizootic raccoon rabies.
Increased monthly counts of rabid raccoons and skunks and decreasing human population density increased the probability of cat rabies in most models.
After the first raccoon epizootic, the risk for cat rabies remained elevated at levels six- to seven-fold above baseline.
By removing rabies cases mis-classified as raccoon variant, the exclusive contribution of the raccoon rabies epizootic to risk of spillover infection in cats was shown.
