SloveniaThe animal shelter in Maribor, managed by the company Snaga Maribor, has confirmed the outbreak of feline panleukopenia, commonly known as cat plague. Due to extreme epidemiological conditions and fully occupied accommodation capacity for cats, the shelter has temporarily stopped accepting new cats, except for sick or injured animals requiring urgent veterinary care. The shelter currently houses 71 cats, of which only five are completely healthy, while 17 kittens have already died due to the disease. The virus is not dangerous to humans or other animals. Strict biosafety measures are being implemented to prevent the spread of infection and ensure proper treatment and care for the affected animals. The shelter explains that accepting new cats under these circumstances would contradict the fundamental principles of animal welfare and biosafety protocols. They will monitor the epidemiological situation closely and inform the public when normal intake of cats can resume.
