Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Infections




To return to the IALA Homepage: IALA
This file contains the FIV information for the IALA Homepage.

The first component of this file will be a summary of information about FIV written in more-or-less lay terminology. The second component will be a more defined description of the effects of FIV on cats - information which has been produced by experimental and field-type investigations. The third component will be a set of citations for published literature on various aspects of the disease process. More extensive listings of published works may be found by using services such as Med-line.

Part one: Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is a recognized pathogen of the feline species, particularly the domestic cat. The virus establishes a relatively long term, persistent infection, which has been recognized to cause encephalitis and death.

Part two:

Part three:
