FELINE PANLEUKOPAENIA VIRUS IS ON THE RISE

There have been dramatically increasing numbers of cats affected by Feline Panleukopaenia Virus (FPLV) in our surrounding cities.

This virus attacks the body's immune system, and is most dangerous in young kittens with a reported mortality rate of 90%.
The virus attacks rapidly dividing cells, so has greatest impact on the immune system, bone marrow, intestine and developing embryos. It is spread via faeces, saliva, blood and across the uterus, it can also be spread by humans from touching secretions/food bowls/litter trays of affected cats.

Clincial signs include: Fever, Vomiting, Diarrhoea, Lethargy, Painful Belly and Dehydration or sudden death (especially in kittens.)
There is no specific treatment for this disease and supportive treatment including intravenous fluids and intensive care are important.

The good news is that the yearly vaccination gives good protection against this virus.

We believe the rise in cases correlates with corresponding reduction in vaccinated cats due to various human factors such as the covid pandemic and financial stressors.

So if getting your cat's vaccination has been on the to do list, we would urge you to get your cats vaccinations up to date, or consider keeping them indoors to reduce risk of exposure.

Tom is on a Register!!!

Huge congratulations to Tom who has qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) and is now officially on the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons RVN Register. A massive amount of work, academic study and practice has gone into his achievement over many years and he is rightly proud. Given his passion for anaesthesia he is already looking at where he can learn more and continue to develop!

Nori came in for a dental yesterday because although she is only a young cat (3yrs old) she has a very painful mouth. As you can see from the photos there is very little to zero tartar on her teeth but her molars have large erosions in them called FORL Feline Ondontoclastic Resorptive Lesions. The cause of these lesions where the gum appears to eat away the enamel exposing the sensitive pulp cavity is currently unknown. Some theories exist linking to various viruses or an over active immune response.
They are extremely painful until the affected teeth are extracted.
Nori is now recovering well at home
