The litter of stray kittens we've rescued was diagnosed with calicivirus on Monday. Today one of our adult furry family members started acting lethargic, feverish, and her eyes were runny. She was also acting like her back legs were hurting, and arthritis is another symptom of calicivirus. But all of our adult cats have been vaccinated against this! So I called the vet's office and was informed that a drug rep told them yesterday that there is a new strain of it, and that the vaccinations won't protect against this strain. The vet said they've seen a couple cases lately, and they hadn't seen any calicivirus in quite a while.
