There are strains of Parvovirus that can be harmful to humans. However, each type of Parvovirus is specific to one species, so Canine Parvovirus cannot hurt a human.

Can animals and small rodents get parvo?

The above answer is totally incorrect-It is IMPOSSIBLE to catch parvo from another species! Cats cannot get parvo. They can catch what is called Feline Distemper which is like parvo, but it only happens in cats, they cannot catch it from anything else besides cats, and it is not actually parvo. Same thing with Rodents- rodents can catch something that is "like" parvo but it is not the actual parvo virus.To sum this up only canines can get parvo.


Can cats get parvo from other cats?

They can get a form of feline Parvo called Panleukopenia Virus. It's alot like the dog's parvo virus but only cats can get it. we had an out break of it when we rescued a new litter of kittens, all of the kittens died because they were unvaccinated, we have 4 older cats who were vaccinated & they are just fine it didnt effect them. Its spread through sharing living area's & eating out of the same bowl, as well as drinking out of the same water dish as an infected cat. Areas infected with feline panleukopenia need to be disinfected with a bleach solution. There is also treatment available. Prevention through routine vaccination is extremely effective.

Can dogs get parvo from cats?

No. Parvo is a disease ONLY in dogs that attacks the cells in the GI tract. This disease is not zoonotic (humans cannot catch it) and neither can felines. Felines can get another form of parvo called panleukopenia unrelated to Parvo with similar symptoms. But dogs can't catch it from cats and vice versa.Source: Veterinary Technician at an emergency and specialty hospital.
