If you have a cat infected with FCV, it is recommended not to have other cats for the time being.
At ordinary times, we must pay attention to environmental sanitation and frequent disinfection, which can reduce the general situation of cats infecting the virus.
Antibiotics are used to prevent secondary bacterial infections from complicating the disease.
Most cats recover completely after a calicivirus infection, but rare strains can be especially deadly.
If your indoor cat is infected with calicivirus, then she must have been exposed to a cat that has already been infected with calicivirus.
It’s possible for a cat to suffer from feline calicivirus more than once – even if they’ve previously been vaccinated against it.
Symptoms of infection in cats depend on the virulence of FCV.
Cats can contract the virus directly through contact with the saliva, nasal and ocular secretions of sick cats or cats with the virus
