Not quire ferrety, but related to a recent thread... As an FYI, the term
"feline distemper" generally refers to a group of four respiratory
illnesses in cats, which is what we vaccinate for when we give a cat a
"feline distemper vaccine", aka "FVRCCP" or "FVRCP": Feline
Rhinotracheitis, Feline Calicivirus, Feline Chlamydiosis and Feline
Panleukopenia.
Thought you might be interested!
