Pneumonia is a type of lung infection, caused by a virus or bacteria. Symptoms may be difficult breathing with pain that runs through the chest on inhalation, cough, headache and fever. It is characterized by the collection of fluid in the lung tissues.
The most common signs and symptoms of pneumonia; malaise and decreased appetite, fever, cough (productive or non productive), difficulty breathing, chest pain (sharp and localized, worsens when you inhale deeply or are coughing) and excessive sweating. If you are having any of these signs or symptoms you should consult a doctor.

pneumonia is a lung related diease, it stops enough oxygen reaching your blood & without enough oxygen in your blood. the blood cells can't work properly. sometimes you can die.
Viruses and germs that cause pneumonia cause a reduction of the amount oxygen in red blood cells. This leads to a systemic loss in oxygen content.

i think they can catch pneumonia but im not too sure xD Pneumonia is not in itself a contagious disease (either between humans or between animals and humans). However the thing which caused the pneumonia (normally a virus) can be contagious.
no
In 1898 it was discovered in cows, and in 1938 it was found in humans.
Pneumonia simply means "inflammation of the lung" - it can be caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, chemicals, inhaled foreign material or auto-immune disease. However, in humans with no other concurrent health concern, pneumonia tends to be caused by a bacteria.
There is a yeast that can cause pneumonia, such as Pneumocystis carinii, which was previously thought to be a protozoa. This yeast causes Pneumonia like symptoms and spreads by infected cough droplets.
Parrot fever is a rare infectious disease that causes pneumonia in humans.
Streptococcus pyogenes they cause strep throat and scarlet feverStreptococcus pneumonia they cause bacterial pneumonia
A common disease passed from birds to humans - is psittacosis. It produces symptoms similar to pneumonia.
Pneumonia is a general term, not a specific disease. There is viral pneumonia, bacterial pneumonia, and a fungal pneumonia, among others.
walking pneumonia
Yes. Humans can do the same also; if the water is cold enough and they person/cat is not warmed right away, they could catch pneumonia. If the kitten was still warmed right after her fall, and she still has pneumonia, it's probably because kittens don't have the strong immune system mature cats have. Hope this helps!
Shipping fever in cattle is usually not contagious to humans. Shipping fever is like pneumonia that humans get. It is contagious to other animals and should be dealt with immediately by isolating sick animals for other animals.
