Expert Answer

After panleukopenia a cat is usually anemic and weak; give blood-tonic products and high-nutrition food like protein, iron, and vitamins. Blood products include liver essence and blood paste.

For severe anemia, an erythropoietin shot by weight at the hospital works much faster than food. Get regular blood counts; if HCT or PCV falls below 20%, transfuse red cells promptly.
