Abstract: The study involved collecting fifty fecal samples from cats and kittens across various age groups to diagnose feline panleukopenia (FPL), with 30 of them testing positive using the PCR method. Subsequently, blood and serum samples from FPL-positive cats were examined. Hematological analysis indicated the presence of anemia and leukopenia characterized by neutropenia and lymphopenia in these cats. Furthermore, biochemical investigations revealed notable elevations in liver-specific enzymes such as ALT and AST, along with reductions in TP and albumin levels in FPL-affected cats compared to healthy counterparts. Additionally, kidney function tests (KFT) indicated a slight increase in serum creatinine and BUN levels in cats afflicted with Feline Panleukopenia (FPL).
