One of the great things about felines is that they seem so self-sufficient. But when my new cat needs something, he is no less vulnerable than a dog or any other pet. Looking after him can take a lot of patience and attention.

URI is very easily transmitted by any fomite- this is any object or living thing that has come in contact with the virus.

Factors such as overcrowding, poor air quality, poor sanitation, stress, concurrent illness, parasitism, poor nutrition, and other causes of immunosuppression predispose to disease, and many of these factors are difficult or impossible to completely eliminate in a typical shelter, cattery or rescue home.
