Feline Parvovirus is most commonly seen in '''cats''', but is also seen in minks, racoons, and pandas.

Although routine vaccination can give almost complete control of feline panleucopenia, the disease is seen worldwide in unvaccinated populations. All domestic and exotic felids may contract FPV, as well as some exotic canids. Mink are particularly susceptible, and infection may also be seen in racoons, pandas and coatimundi. Although there are no breed or sex predilections, the severity of disease varies with age. Once maternal immunity has waned, unvaccinated, previously unexposed cats can become infected at any age. However, severe infections are most likely in kittens of 2-6 months of age, and adults usually suffer on  mild or subclinical disease.
