just googling..
http://books.google.com/books?id=aK2XZd ... (Plaquenil),+use+in+cats&source=bl&ots=a70iZQkhfU&sig=q2zd-GEIaQcOcZ2rOkKS_SA_KBw&hl=en&ei=thIBTbTzF4y6sAPSm5SwCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10&sqi=2&ved=0CE0Q6AEwCQ#v=onepage&q=hydroxychloroquine%20(Plaquenil)%2C%20use%20in%20cats&f=false
that reference only talks about its use for lupus in humans, and maybe for dogs but no studies have been done.
No reference to it on Veterinary partner either.

I don't know about it's use with cats. I do know I was put on it when they thought i had lupus (I have three of the four symptoms needed for diagnosis), and it gave me hives. It also requires extra visits to a opthamologist because of a rare, but serious, problem effecting the retina.
