My cat had old shots. Can she get distemper from a dog with parvo?

Question

Can my cat that's 4 years old get feline distemper if in contact with a dog that had parvo? My cat also got her FVRCP shot when she was young. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 30 lbs

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

No, it's not the same disease and cats cannot get parvo from dogs. She won't be protected from serious cat illnesses, however, since she hasn't had vaccines since she was young. You will need to update Rosie on them.
