Feline distemper is an infectious disease with a high fatality rate, and clinical treatment is complicated, especially in the later stages of feline distemper infection, so treatment at home is not recommended. Because the conditions for home treatment are limited, and the treatment of feline plague requires the use of a large number of biological agents. At the same time, pet owners’ lack of relevant medical knowledge can easily aggravate the condition and even accelerate the cat’s death.

How to treat kittens with cat plague:

1. Specific treatment. Specific treatment can be to inject anti-cat distemper virus hyperimmune serum and interferon subcutaneously into the neck of the cat. Hyperimmune serum can provide cats with antibodies, allowing the cat’s own immune system to overcome viral infections, while interferon can inhibit viral replication.

2. Supportive treatment. Supportive treatment mainly focuses on anti-inflammation, preventing dehydration, stopping bleeding, antivomiting, replenishing energy, balancing electrolytes, etc. based on the specific symptoms of cats.

3. Prevention is better than cure. The mortality rate of feline plague is relatively high, and clinical prevention is better than cure. If the cat is two months old and in good health, you can take the cat to the pet hospital as soon as possible to be vaccinated with Feline Sanlian to prevent the occurrence of feline distemper virus.
