Abstract

Viruses are becoming increasingly recognized as an important cause of feline skin disease. Diseases associated with viruses in cats include hyperplastic and neoplastic skin disease caused by papillomaviruses, erosive and ulcerative skin disease caused by herpesviruses and poxviruses, and skin lesions that develop as a part of a more generalized viral infection as is seen due to calicivirus infection. Skin disease may also be seen in cats infected by feline leukemia virus and feline infectious peritonitis virus. In this chapter, the etiology and epidemiology of infection by each of the viruses that cause feline skin disease are reviewed along with the clinical disease presentation, the histological lesions, and other appropriate diagnostic tests. Additionally, the expected clinical course of the diseases and the currently recommended therapies are described.
