Genome Sequence of a Bangladeshi Strain of Raoultella ornithinolytica, a Pathogen with Metal and Antimicrobial Resistance Genes Isolated from a Pet Cat.

Raoultella ornithinolytica is an emerging pathogen that causes human infections. We report the isolation and genome sequencing of R. ornithinolytica from an oral swab of a Persian pet cat in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The genome length was 5,375,160 bp, with 55.9% G+C content. It carries putative genes associated with resistance to antibiotics and metals.
