IMPORTANT VACCINATION - NEWS
especially against
PARVOVIROSE / FELINE PANLEUKOPENIA / FELINE INFECTIOUS ENTERITIS

( Sorry, but I can't guarantee that there are no translation errors / Michael )

For all details, please read our pdf-file at 'BND' (Barnedroemer Nachrichten Dienst = BARNEDROEM's news; please see above)

SUMMARY (updated : 20.04.2008/15.11.2009)
01) Fact is, the current vaccination (against feline infectious enteritis) did faile
02) Fact is, that there are NO FURTHER CATS from our cattery which are involved , than those I've told/written above (EVITA+ ; AGNETHA uad ANNI-FRID). All other cats still remained healthy and since at the latest of March 15th the current phase of danger of infection is gone !
03) Too, fact is, that not only the first vaccine manufacturers, which were known, are concerned.
04) That's the reason why we think, that there must be a mutation of the parvovirus and a change of its properties. And the current vaccinations, which are available, are not adjusted to the new properties and so they did faile in a lot of cases (different catteries) ! Further it is known, that there is minimum one case, where it did faile at an infection by a well known virus-mutation (an older one). Further it's known from dog breeding that since the open European frontiers, there appeared new parvovirus-mutations from the Eastern part of Europe, where the current vaccinations are not updated and so they did faile; why not at the cats too ?
05) It is known, that there CAN BE a certain influence of the maternal antibodies, BUT IT MUST NO TO BE !!!
06) Further it is known, that the decrease of the maternal antibodies does not function in the same procedure, or better in the same time, at one kitten, than at another kitten of the same litter, and that it does not increase the building up of the own immune system of the kitten(s) in the same manner.
07) Indipendent of the assimilation of the maternal antibodies (normaly ca. 72% of the mother's antibody-titer) by the colostrum, after the first vaccination with living vaccine (attenuated vaccine) the kittens did show the same symptoms of sickness (vaccinating reaction as there are vomiting, diarrhoea, fever and sometimes loss of weight).
08) The assertion of some vaccine manufacturers, that this would be a problem only of the Norwegian Forestcats, this statement is disprovided unequivocally by the sientific work at the Veterinäry University of Munich (link see above), cause there was not even one Norwegian Forest cat involved !
09) In future WE ourselves WON'T USE ANYMORE FURTHER LIVING VACCINE (attenuated vaccine) , althought the vaccine manufacturers will tell us that the building up of the immune system will grow up faster, than with inactivated vaccines.
10) Further it is known, often living vaccines do show plain vaccine reactions at the cats, which you wont find in using inactivated vaccines and it is known, that kittens which were vaccinated with attenuated vaccines, are excreting the virus for some time. Regarding this fact, it will be a very high risk, cause other cats of the same household (for example pregnant cats or other new litters) could be infected with the parvovirus in this way and it can result in developmental disorders of the foetuses !
11) Young cats (kittens) which were vaccinated with attenuated vaccines often have the symptoms of sickness of which the consequence is, that their weaked immune system must fight against secondary (bacterial or viral) infects too, sometimes with lethal result. This is known over years of a lot of different catteries !
12) In our opinion the following does speak against attenuated vaccines too : tests of our cats did show, that cats which were vaccinated for years with living vaccines, don't have a better vaccine protection, than the others which were vaccinated by inactiveted vaccines. Mostly the last ones show a better parvovirus-antibody-titer, even after a break of vaccination, than those which were vaccinated with live vaccine !!!
13) Clarification of the parvovirus-antibody-titer of a female, before she will be mated, perhaps revaccination, if neccessary.
14) Imperatively clarification of the parvovirus-antibody-titer, if a cat will go to cat-shows or to another cattery, perhaps revaccination, if neccessary. BUT THAT CANNOT BE SERIOUS for the FUTURE !!! This is the point where the vaccine manufacturers are requested to updated their vaccines with the current mutations !!! All cat-breeders are willing to bring in their knowledge of the last 15 (or more) breeding years, cause we ALL are concerned. Not only in our own opinion there must be done something to optimize the current vaccines immediately by the vaccine manufacturers !!!
15) We want to try to change the vaccine manufacturers yearly, if possible, to be better prepared against other mutations of the parvovirus in future.
16) For the cat shows it will be neccessary to clean and disinfect consequently the cages and the tables of the judges, with substances which are against parvoviruses too ( for example TAD CID ; VIRKON S or one of the others ) if it's not done already. But always you must remember : even after the best disinfection then there can still remain some very few viruses or bacteria.

Dear catbreeders and catfriends, perhaps you're concerned too : It costs quite an effort to publish those problems, even if oneself is concerned. But trust fidelity and candidness. ONLY by making things transparent, WE ALL TOGETHER CAN CHANGE THINGS for our beloved animals, perhaps even in an upper scale.
Don't hesitate and contact us, either Gisela and Bernd GORITZKA (Earl Grey's ; please see below) or mail to us, if you're concerned in the same or similar problems. We all are willing to help you, if we can and we estimate for the confidence shown to us. Self-evident we will observe secrecy, if you wish so.
