What is Feline Calicivirus?
Feline Calicivirus is a common viral infection that
affects the respiratory tract, mouth, intestines and musculoskeletal
system of cats. Symptoms usually last 14-21
days, during which the virus is extremely contagious to other cats. However, a cat can also be contagious during
the incubation period (usually 2-6 days prior to symptoms). It can be spread
through saliva or secretions from the nose or
eyes. The virus can live for up to a week on items and it is important to
disinfect the environment to protect other cats.
The most common symptoms of
the virus are upper respiratory infections (sneezing, nasal congestion and conjunctivitis), ulcers in the cat’s mouth and sometimes on the lips and nose, inflammation and fatigue. Your pet's inability
to smell and the painful ulcers may inhibit them from wanting to eat. It's important to seek out veterinary care as some cats can become dehydrated and hospitalization is needed.
Symptoms of Calicivirus
- Loss of appetite
- Eye discharge
- Nasal discharged
- Development of ulcers on tongue, hard palate, tip of nose, lips or around claws
- Pneumonia
- Arthritis (inflammation of joints)
- Lameness
- Fever
Holistic care can help cats
suffering from Calicivirus and offer immune support after the symptoms have
subsided (some cats may remain carriers of the virus and have episodes of shedding
viruses through their life). Using the Immune Support Kit with Power Probiotic can help speed recovery, reduce symptoms and support long term immune support.

Diet For Cats With Calcivirus
Cats with calcivirus (and other viruses and/or autoimmune diseases) need a low carbohydrate, hypoallergenic diet. Cats are carnivores and yet most cat commercial diets are high in carbohydrates which can weaken their immune system. Please include your cat's diet on the Ask Ariel order form along with all of your cat's health issues and you will receive FREE diet tips on the packing slip that comes with your product directions.
