Feline panleucopenia virus was isolated from the cerebellum of two of seven kittens having cerebellar ataxia accompanied by cerebellar hypoplasia, and from three others by direct cultivation of kidneys. The original disease was reproduced by inoculation of the isolated viruses into new-born kittens and ferrets. Foetuses of cats inoculated within the uterus had severe hypoplasia closely resembling the disease found in nature.
