There are numerous bacterial diseases affecting ornamental birds, whether as the primary or secondary. In birds Gram negative bacteria are considered the most pathogenic among these, there are the Pseudomonas sp which are normally found in small amounts in cultures performed with samples from choanal and cloacal swabs from birds. However, when it is found outside the gastrointestinal tract or region of the choana / oropharynx can become a dangerous pathogen. The diagnosis was made by isolation and identification of the pathogen Pseudomonas sp. For the treatment of this disease has employed the use of anti-inflammatory Meloxicam, the antibiotic Enrofloxacin antibacterial Tobramycin eye drops, and the use of these drugs was administered 2 ml of glucose orally. At the end of treatment there was a general improvement of the animal, with the parade of runny nose, diarrhea and regression of the inflammatory process in the right eye of the animal. Considering these results, we concluded that the treatment was effective in the cure of the animal.
