Cats are the most favorite pets. Time spent with a cat is never wasted, said Collete, famous French novelist. Maintaining a cat is not a difficult thing, but that does not mean not out of the threats of disease both from viruses and bacteria and fungi.

Some types of diseases originating from viruses and bacteria even fall into the category of deadly diseases for cats. Some can be treated with vaccines but some still have no counterfeit in Indonesia.

Here are some deadly diseases in cats based on the explanation of drh Nalia Putriyanda in the gathering of Jakarta Cat Lovers Community in Taman Mataram, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, Sunday (15/1).

1 Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPV)
The virus is spread through feces, secretions, vomit, carried in clothes and shoes, and others. This virus is the most deadly virus with the highest mortality rate for cats.

In adult cats, symptoms are indicated as fever, weak and will not eat. After 1-2 days of fever, the cat will vomit and diarrhea accompanied by blood. In kittens, this disease can cause sudden death without symptoms.

2 Feline Calici Virus
This virus attacks the respiratory tract, mouth, digestion, muscle and bone. Symptoms shown are loss of appetite, watery eyes, slimy nose, injuries to the tongue and lips, difficulty breathing and joint pain. In severe cases also occur pneumonia, hepatitis, and bleeding.

Feline Calici's spread occurs through the mucus of the eyes and nose, inhaling the virus from sneezing, using the feeding bowl and the shared litterbox , and environmental contamination.

3 Chlmydophilosis
This disease is caused by Chlamydiasis felis bacteria that mostly attack kittens aged 5-12 weeks. Symptoms shown in the form of fever, sneezing and runny nose, loss of appetite and inflamed eyes. If untreated the eye infection will get worse within 2 months and may spread through the mucus of his eyes for several months.

It takes a rather long treatment for 3-4 weeks. If the cat's eyes are very severe and can not be saved will be performed surgery to lift his eyeballs (enukleasi).

4 Feline Rhinotracheitis
The disease is caused by the herpes virus that causes problems in the upper airway. Parental cats that are pregnant and cats with poor immunity are at high risk of contracting.

Uncontrolled sneezing is one of the symptoms experienced. In addition, the release of clear or green mucus from the nose, lost the ability to smell, dirt, eye inflammation, often cats prefer to close their eyes, fever, weakness and miscarriage.

Existing symptoms will improve within 7-10 days and recovery depends on the body's immunity, good nutrition and maintained body fluids.

5 Feline Infectious Peritonitis
The disease is caused by the virus Feline coronavirus (FCoV). Transmission occurs through saliva or feces and through the placenta from mother to child. The degree of malignancy of this disease depends on the immune system of infected cat tubes.

6 Feline Immunodeficiency Virus
"The virus is arguably a slow virus. Infected cats are usually asymptomatic for several years from the initial infection. This puts us in the way of HIV in humans. Cats are attacked, their immune will become low and susceptible to various diseases."

• drh Nalia Putriyanda

The main mode of transmission is through bite wounds, mother to child transmission through the birth canal or through breast milk.

Aggressive outdoor cats and frequent fights are at risk for this virus.

7 Feline Leukemia Virus
In general, the virus is almost the same as the FIV that both attack the immune system. Cats affected by this virus condition will decline in three years until death.

Licking and fighting are common causes of transmission. Kittens can also be infected at the womb or through the mother's milk. Cats can also be carrier, looking healthy but still potentially infectious.
