abstract = {In this paper, we study a quasilinear chemotaxis model with a nonlinear indirect consumption mechanism   {v1t=∇⋅(ψ(v1)∇v1−χϕ(v1)∇v2)+λ1v1−λ2v1β,x∈Ω,t&gt;0,v2t=Δv2−wθv2,x∈Ω,t&gt;0,0=Δw−w+v1α,x∈Ω,t&gt;0,in a smooth and bounded domain  Ω⊂Rn(n≥1) with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, where  χ,λ1,λ2,θ&gt;0,0&lt;α≤1θ,β≥2,   ψ, and  ϕ are nonlinear functions that satisfy  ψ(s)≥a0(s+1)r1 and  0≤ϕ(s)≤b0s(s+1)r2 for all  s≥0 with  a0,b0&gt;0 and  r1,r2∈R. It has been proven that if  r1&gt;2r2+1, then the problem admits a global and bounded classical solution for some appropriate nonnegative initial data.}
