Several diseases can be fatal to cats if not diagnosed and treated promptly. Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is one of the most serious, attacking the immune system and leading to cancer, anemia, and other severe conditions¹. Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), similar to HIV in humans, weakens the immune system, making cats susceptible to various infections¹.
Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), caused by a mutated coronavirus, is almost always fatal. It primarily affects young cats and those in multi-cat households¹. Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), a common heart disease in cats, can lead to sudden death due to heart failure².
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is prevalent in older cats and can be fatal if not managed properly. It leads to the gradual loss of kidney function, causing toxins to build up in the body². Cancer, including lymphoma and squamous cell carcinoma, can also be deadly if not treated early².
Regular veterinary check-ups, vaccinations, and prompt attention to any signs of illness are crucial in preventing and managing these diseases. Keeping your cat indoors and providing a balanced diet can also help reduce the risk of these fatal conditions.
