摘要：
The purposes of this Study were to determine the seroprevalence of feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) infection among cats in Canada and to identify risk factors for seropositivity. Signalment, lifestyle factors, and test results for FeLV antigen and FIV antibody were analyzed for 11 144 cats from the 10 Canadian provinces. Seroprevalence for FIV antibody was 4.3% and seroprevalence for FeLV antigen was 3.4%. Fifty-eight cats (0.5%) were seropositive for both viruses. Seroprevalence varied geographically. Factors Such as age, gender, health status, and lifestyle were significantly associated with risk of FeLV and FIV seropositivity The results suggest that cats in Canada are at risk of retrovirus infection and support current recommendations that the retrovirus status of all cars should be known.
