FeLV related Illnesses in Manx Cats

Did you know that the FeLV virus in cats like the Manx stands for the Feline Leukemia Virus? This is a virus that can affect cats of all ages and breeds. It can affect both male and female. FeLV is not contagious to people or other animals. Research shows that younger cats and senior cats are more prone to get FeLV than other cats. This is because of the underdeveloped immune system in kittens and a compromised or weakened immune system in elderly cats. The FeLV virus can further weaken the immune system causing the cats to be susceptible to other illnesses and disease. Some illnesses caused by FeLV include kidney disease and other cancers. Lymphoma is the leading cancer caused by FeLV. The disease can also cause lymposarcoma which is a highly malignant and fatal form of cancer in the lymph system. For more information, consult with your pet clinic Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
