My cat has Feline Panleukopenia. How to feed and care at home?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 4 months and 22 days old | 3 lbs

I went to the vet and they said that my cat has Feline Panleukopenia and the did a set of 5 injections, probably antibiotics or something like this. I took the cat home but she’s still the same. The only thing that changed is that she doesn’t have fever anymore. What am I supposed to feed her? Am I able to take care of her home? If so, please let me know. Thank you!

A high calorie liquid diet such as viyo recuperation or royal canin gastrointestinal liquid diets are the easiest for her to digest when recovering, as well as oral electrolyte (salt and sugar solutions) which can be offered for her to drink or syringe fed. If the vomiting is still persistent she will require injectable fluids and nausea medications by your vet
