Can a breastfeeding cat born ten days get cat plague?
A suckling cat born ten days ago is likely to get cat plague. Cat plague is a serious disease caused by cat plague virus, which is mainly transmitted by direct contact or rodent insects. Because the immune system of milk cats is not fully developed and their resistance to viruses is relatively weak, they are easily infected by viruses. If the mother cat has not been vaccinated with the cat plague virus, then the suckling cat may also be infected with the virus through breast milk. Therefore, suckling cats born for more than ten days have a certain risk of illness. In order to ensure the health of nursing cats, it is suggested that young cats should be vaccinated with feline plague virus when they are 6-8 weeks old, and at the same time, they should be taken to the veterinarian for physical examination regularly to ensure the health of cats. If the cat is found to have symptoms such as loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, or eye inflammation and infection, it is recommended to seek medical advice immediately.
