Now there have been documented cases of cats that get sick and survive the infection and even those that never show clinical signs at all. [2] [5] [9] [10] Cats cannot catch the infection from another cat directly without being bitten by a tick. [citation needed] The life cycle of the protozoa has a tissue phase and an erythrocytic (red blood ...
In chronic nasal and sinus disease of cats, FHV-1 may play more of an initiating role than an ongoing cause. Infection at an early age may permanently damage nasal and sinus tissue, causing a disruption of ciliary clearance of mucus and bacteria, and predispose these cats to chronic bacterial infections.
A feline zoonosis is a viral, bacterial, fungal, protozoan, nematode or arthropod infection that can be transmitted to humans from the domesticated cat, Felis catus.Some of these diseases are reemerging and newly emerging infections or infestations caused by zoonotic pathogens transmitted by cats.
There is a lack of evidence that FIP as such is transmissible from cat to cat, although it may explain rare mini-outbreaks of FIP. [8] However, the virus, FCov, is transmissible from cat to cat. A study on 59 FIP infected cats found that, unlike FCoV, feces from FIP infected cats were not infectious to laboratory cats via oronasal route. [9]

Home movies, often filmed with a cell phone camera, also tend to cause motion sickness in those who view them. The person holding the cell phone or other camera usually is unaware of this as the recording is being made since the sense of motion seems to match the motion seen through the camera's viewfinder.
A 2012 survey of 445 purebred pet cats and 45 shelter cats in Finland found an overall seroprevalence of 48.4%, [137] while a 2010 survey of feral cats from Giza, Egypt found a seroprevalence rate of 97.4%. [138] Another survey from Colombia recorded seroprevalence of 89.3%, [139] whereas a Chinese study found just a 2.1% prevalence. [140]
