The vomiting symptoms shown by the cats described by fans, especially after ingesting the broth, combined with the hospital's confirmed results, can confirm that the cat is indeed infected with feline plague virus. Common initial symptoms of feline plague (feline parvovirus infection) include loss of appetite, fever and vomiting, which may be a response to the virus.
Symptoms such as sneezing, nosebleeds and coughing in cats during the feline plague process are not directly caused by the feline plague virus, but respiratory tract infections secondary to decreased resistance. Common respiratory pathogens such as mycoplasma, chlamydia, herpes virus or calicivirus can take advantage of the weakness and cause respiratory discomfort in cats.
At present, based on the results of the available examinations, the specific respiratory tract infection is not clearly indicated**. In order to accurately judge and formulate a targeted plan, it is recommended to further conduct a five-link nucleic acid examination of respiratory tract secretions from the eyes, nose and mouth to identify the source of infection.
Although the local doctor mentioned that the cat may have heart and lung problems, it is considered that the symptoms such as sneezing and coughing are mainly related to respiratory infections and not typical of heart or lung lesions. Therefore, X-rays or B-ultrasound examinations are not necessary for the time being, and respiratory infections can be observed first.
Cats have recently seen behaviors such as shaking their heads and licking their mouths, which are likely to be related to nasal discomfort caused by respiratory infections. When the cat's nasal inflammation is severe, it will frequently shake its head and lick its nose due to discomfort.
Cats sneeze out light-colored, non-thick liquid and even blood, because the nasal mucosa is irritated by inflammation and the capillaries are fragile and ruptured. A thick, yellow, viscous discharge may contain an inflammatory exudate.
For the doctor's statement that "the treatment of feline plague basically covers respiratory viral infection", it is necessary to specifically understand whether the antiviral drugs used are broad-spectrum antiviral drugs. Different viral infections may require specific antiviral drugs, and common anti-inflammatory drugs alone may not be effective against all viruses.
During a cat's illness, it is important to disinfect the home environment, especially if there are other cats. Items that have been touched by sick cats should be replaced or thoroughly disinfected as much as possible to prevent the spread of the virus. As for the doctor's point of view that "the cat plague virus at home will disappear naturally after six months", it is correct to a certain extent, because the virus has a limited survival time in the environment and the body of the sick cat will produce antibodies after the disease, but the cat still needs to avoid contact with the sick cat for a year to prevent it.

Summary: In the face of cats with feline plague and respiratory tract infection, in addition to the basics of feline plague (inhibitory protein, interferon and antipyretic injections, etc.), the program also needs to focus on the investigation and treatment of respiratory tract infection. Through reasonable diagnostic testing (such as respiratory five-link nucleic acid test), giving symptomatic antiviral and anti-inflammatory drugs, and strengthening environmental disinfection and nursing work, it will help cats as soon as possible**. In addition, communicate with veterinarians in a timely manner to ensure the professionalism and scientificity of the diagnosis and treatment plan.
