Fecal viral DNA shedding following clinical panleukopenia virus infection in shelter kittens: a prospective, observational study.

These findings suggest that cats should be isolated for at least 14 days after a diagnosis of FP, but that release from isolation after this point is reasonable, in association with a multifaceted infection control strategy. The study findings did not support using SNAP test results, diarrhea or systemic signs as proxy measures for virus shedding.
