FHV (Feline Herpesvirus) is a common disease in cats, also known as feline coronavirus. It is a highly contagious virus that primarily affects cats’ respiratory tract and eyes. Here is some important information about FHV:
1. Symptoms: Cats infected with FHV usually exhibit upper respiratory tract symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, red and watery eyes. Other common symptoms include loss of appetite, increased body temperature, yawning, and the patient lifting their front paws to wipe their eyes.
2. Transmission: FHV is transmitted through direct contact with infected cats or infected objects (such as food bowls, cat litters). Droplets in the air can also spread the virus.
3. Treatment: There is currently no specific cure for FHV, but symptoms can be managed to help cats recover. This may include providing a comfortable environment, maintaining the cat's diet and fluid intake, using eye drops to clean the eyes, and using antibiotics or antiviral medications as directed by your veterinarian.
4. Prevention: Vaccination is the key to preventing FHV. Cat owners should vaccinate their cats against FHV, especially when they are young. In addition, maintaining good hygiene and avoiding contact with infected cats can also help reduce the risk of transmission.
