Also known as Feline Panleukopaenia. FIE is a disease that strikes suddenly and progresses very quickly to death. If FIE is suspected, action must be taken immediately. Symptoms are diarrhea, loss of appetite, vomiting of bile, cries of pain if touched, followed lastly by total collapse. FIE affects cats of all ages and those who do survive appear to have lifelong immunity. Vaccination against FIE in kittenhood, however, with yearly boosters, is almost totally effective.
