Hello there!
It's understandable to be concerned about your young cat sleeping more than usual, especially after treatment for Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPV) and a urinary tract infection (UTI). After such illnesses, it's quite normal for cats to experience some fatigue. Their bodies are still recovering, and rest is an essential part of the healing process.
Cats might sleep more due to lingering effects from the virus or their body's effort to bounce back from both FPV and UTI treatments. Ensure they have a comfortable, quiet environment to sleep in and plenty of fresh water to drink. Good hydration is crucial for recovery and helps maintain a healthy urinary tract.
Keep an eye out for signs like difficulty breathing, refusal to eat or drink, or any signs of pain like vocalizing more than usual or hiding. If you notice any vomiting or diarrhea, these could indicate a more serious issue needing prompt attention.
If your cat continues to sleep excessively beyond a few days or if any concerning symptoms develop, it may be time for a follow-up. To ensure your furry friend is on the mend, consider scheduling a video consult with us at Dial A Vet. We’re here to help guide you through their recovery process and address any lingering concerns.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
