Today is Feline Leukemia Day. This day is intended to raise awareness of Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV), one of the most important infectious diseases of cats worldwide. Affected cats can develop anemia (a low red blood cell level), cancers, and/or suppression of the immune system.

Widespread testing and vaccination efforts have helped to reduce the prevalence of the disease over the past 30 years, and in 2010 approximately 3% of the cats in the United States were infected.

Vaccinations are the key to prevention and are a part of regular wellness care.
