    Early signs of dry FIP?

    Hi everyone. I am posting here to see if anyone has an anecdotal experience regarding the early symptoms of dry FIP. One of my cats (1.5 yrs old) was recently diagnosed with dry FIP and his symptoms started out as a bizarre neurological episode leaving him walking hunched over with his tail...

    Took in another stray but she's positive for FCoV antibodies

    Most cats are exposed to feline coronavirus, but only some cats have it mutate inside their bodies to the fatal condition (FIP). NO researchers have figured out why some cats get FIP. I think FIP must be much more common than it's widely said to be. I lost a kitten to FIP, then a year later...

    Problems with my 10 month old kitten.

    From what I understand a constant fever can be an indicator of FIP and tests can be unreliable so they have to confirm by looking at blood tests/overall symptoms. I would inquire with your vet about this. If they do confirm it is FIP please join the FIP Warriors group on Facebook for further...

    My cat has FIP developed a infection in her fur.

    If your cat is on treatments for FIP, have you posted to their site to ask for others who may have experienced anything similar? It may be something that passes after the treatments are complete, but you would serve you and your cat better to ask those who are familiar with using FIP treatments.

    Need advice: cat lost appetite, fever, no diagnosis

    I, too, lost a cat to FIP in 2013. I did my best against a monster, with no weapons at all.

    Need advice: cat lost appetite, fever, no diagnosis

    My first thought also, having lost a cat to FIP. I hope it is not. There is a cure now but I understand it's expensive. I would have moved heaven and earth to get a cure for my Darcy.

    Need advice: cat lost appetite, fever, no diagnosis

    Did the vet run a protein electrophoresis test? When sudden symptoms like the ones you mentioned appear, my first thought goes to FIP.

    My cat needs help!!!

    I am so sorry to hear this. It sounds like you have done a lot to try to gather the funds to get his treatment. I presume you joined the FIP Warrior group - did they have any recommendations for assistance? FIP Warriors Most folks will share their GoFundMe web link - can you do that? The one...

    New kittens, vomiting and coccidia

    If she’s eating a lot, it’s not uncommon for kitten tummies to look very round while they are little. Wet FIP can cause a bloated belly, but I think you said earlier the vet does not think she has FIP.

    Our Bowie has Wet FIP and need some encouragement!

    ...Bowie - an abuse survivor "foster fail" (who failed immediately as he won our hearts right away) - was just diagnosed August 11 with presumed wet FIP. I've been with cat shelters for years, and know how Wet FIP usually looks in kittens (altho an adult with it is new for me!). His only two...

    FIP is not contagious. The coronavirus that can mutate to FIP is. Yes, the treatments are not valuable unless FIP is diagnosed. It will do nothing for the coronavirus. I flagged your post to the moderators about changing the title Hopefully, they will handle it.

    Took in another stray but she's positive for FCoV antibodies

    No one knows for sure why some cats who have coronavirus end up with it mutating to FIP. It is assumed to be related to a weak immune system, which can happen in younger cats, most often under the age of 2-3 because they are still developing their immune system. It can happen to older cats whose...

    Kitten with dilated pupils - possible FIP?

    ...him back to the vet tomorrow. Does this sound like FIV? I'm just very frustrated and don't know what it could be. I have also watched videos of cats with neuro/ocular FIP and he doesn't seem similar to them..he's only been sick for a few days though so it's possible his condition will get worse

    Problems with my 10 month old kitten.

    ...his age, unless it would be genetically acquired, but there are too many other issues going on. I think as others have mentioned, this could be FIP. Are you familiar with it, and can you ask your vet about it? It is very hard to confirm through most testing, so see what your vet says, and...
