width=&#8221;9\/12&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #03548c;\">Feline rhinotracheitis, more commonly known as cat cold, is a highly contagious infectious disease affecting the upper respiratory tract of cats.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Rhinotracheitis is caused by feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1).<\/p>\n<p>Herpesvirus indiscriminately affects cats of all ages, sexes, and breeds.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, however, those most at risk are very young cats, unvaccinated kittens, and those who live outdoors and come into contact with contaminated cats.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Come-si-trasmette-la-rinotracheite\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>How is rhinotracheitis transmitted?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The virus is shed directly into the environment via the ocular, nasal, and pharyngeal secretions of cats in the acute phase of disease or carriers.<\/p>\n<p>Although it endures little in the outdoor environment, in a moderately warm and humid climate, the virus survives long enough to infect several cats.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of this, where there are high concentrations of cats, herpesvirus is highly likely to spread like wildfire.<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, <em>this is a sadly known infection especially among those who manage feline colonies<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"I-gatti-guariti-dalla-rinotracheite-rimangono-portatori-e-eliminatori-del-virus\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Cats cured of rhinotracheitis remain carriers and eliminators of the virus<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Unfortunately, it is estimated that about 80 percent of cured cats remain carriers of the virus.<\/p>\n<p>And again, a characteristic feature of this infection is the phenomenon of latency-that is, its ability to remain localized in an inert form in the host cat&#8217;s nervous system cells.<\/p>\n<p>Incidentally, it is not removed from there.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, as a result of stress or other diseases, the virus comes out of its latency phase and flares up again.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Come-se-non-bastasse-anche-i-gattini-possono-contrarre-la-rinotracheite-direttamente-dalla-madre\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>To make matters worse, even kittens can contract rhinotracheitis directly from their mother<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Maternal antibodies, acquired through colostrum, protect kittens from the disease during the first few weeks of life.<\/p>\n<p>However, this immunity is bound to fade after very few weeks of puppies&#8217; lives.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, this is a vicious cycle that clearly shows why it is so difficult to eliminate the virus in catteries and all environments with a high density of animals.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"I-primi-sintomi-della-rinotracheite\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Early symptoms of rhinotracheitis<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The incubation period is usually 2-6 days, but can be longer.<\/p>\n<p>Viral rhinotracheitis in most cases manifests in an acute form with the onset of respiratory symptoms characterized by sneezing, serous nasal and ocular discharge, fever and lack of appetite.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"A-queste-manifestazioni-segue-la-comparsa-di-congiuntivite-inizialmente-sierosa-che-spesso-evolve-con-produzione-di-muco-e-pus\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>These manifestations are followed by the appearance of conjunctivitis, initially serous, which often evolves with mucus and pus production<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>As the pus dries, it forms scabs on the outside that &#8220;glue&#8221; the eyelids together.<\/p>\n<p>If the pus stagnates inside the eye, the risk is that serious injuries remain that cannot be healed: complete loss of vision or even the cat&#8217;s eye.<\/p>\n<p>That is why it is important to remove the scabs, open the eyelids frequently, and remove the pus.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, when the disease presents in a more aggressive form, additional complications may arise: dermatitis, neurological signs, pneumonia, and even oral ulcers.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Il-decorso-della-rinotracheite\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>The course of rhinotracheitis<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>In most affected adults, clinical signs of rhinotracheitis disappear in 2-3 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Different is the case for puppies, elderly cats, and immunocompromised cats whose immune systems do not always respond positively and who are often life-threatening.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"La-cura-per-la-rinotracheite\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>The cure for rhinotracheitis<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Here is what the treatment involves, which, remember, can ONLY be prescribed by your trusted veterinarian and after the necessary examination to confirm the diagnosis:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>eye drops<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>antibiotics<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Mucolytic drugs<\/strong> to relieve the oppression caused by mucus<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aerosol<\/strong> to clear the respiratory tract and also restore kitty&#8217;s appetite<\/li>\n<li><strong>Supplements and vitamins<\/strong> to boost the cat&#8217;s immune system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 id=\"Le-precauzioni-per-evitare-il-contagio-da-rinotracheite\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Precautions to avoid rhinotracheitis infection<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The possibility of contagion is reduced with proper disinfection of environment and accessories, kennels, bowls and carriers.<\/p>\n<p>If your cat has gotten sick with rhinotracheitis and if you have other cats in the house, you need to keep it isolated to avoid infection.<\/p>\n<p>Then, after caring for the sick cat, change clothes, use gloves and disinfect hands, arms and face very well before coming into contact with other healthy cats living in the house.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Come-difendere-i-gatti-dalla-rinotracheite\"><span style=\"color:
