Abstract:
The contagious coryza is an acute disease in cats, which is caused by feline calicivirus (FCV) and feline herpesvirus type-1 (FHV-1). FCV appears to be isolated more frequently from cats than FHV-1. This review summarizes the current knowledge about FCV and about the clinic, epidemiology, and pathogenesis of the disease induced. Particular problems of immunoprophylaxis of infection with FCV are also discussed.
