Abstract
Feline panleukopenia, also known as feline infectious enteritis or feline distemper, is a highly contagious generalized disease of cats caused by feline panleukopenia virus (FPLV) [2]. The disease is most severe in young, unvaccinated kittens between 6 and 24 weeks of age and is characterized by sudden onset of pronounced depression, anorexia and fever. The mortality rate ranges from 25 to 90% in the acute form [1, 2]. This study was reports for the enteritis caused by the infection of FPLV in imported cats. (omitted)
