    Snippet: The viruses were more often isolated from cats that shared a habitat (Table 1) . Such results are similar to those demonstrated in surveys performed in European countries (2, Feline calicivirus and feline herpesvirus 13). The high prevalence of these viruses in cats that share a living space is generally attributed to the method of transmission, which requires close contact between infected and susceptible animals (11, 25) .

    Document: The viruses were more often isolated from cats that shared a habitat (Table 1) . Such results are similar to those demonstrated in surveys performed in European countries (2, Feline calicivirus and feline herpesvirus 13). The high prevalence of these viruses in cats that share a living space is generally attributed to the method of transmission, which requires close contact between infected and susceptible animals (11, 25) . Furthermore, another important characteristic of the Brazilian cat population is that most cats, even ones with owners, live outside. This means that cats are more exposed to infectious diseases that are transmitted by contact than the general population analyzed in surveys performed in the USA and European countries.
