Cats infected with feline distemper virus may die in 3 to 7 days if they are not treated. However, there are a very small number of kittens and adult cats that will survive the course of feline distemper on their own without treatment. Acute cases die within 24 hours, and subacute cases last about 7 days. If not treated in time, the cat will become increasingly dehydrated with constant vomiting and diarrhea. The course of cat distemper generally lasts about 7 to 10 days, and the recovery is closely related to the cat's own immunity, the severity of the disease, and treatment methods.

Solutions for cats suffering from feline distemper:

1. The main treatment method is parenteral infusion to supplement electrolytes and nutrients, correct dehydration, and improve vomiting. Symptoms and administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics to prevent secondary bacterial infection.

2. Mild cases, especially in the early stages of the disease, should be treated under isolation conditions. Sick cats are severely dehydrated due to diarrhea. Therefore, timely and decisive infusion is required in the early stage of the disease to adjust the balance of body fluids and electrolytes and correct body acidosis.
