Just wanted to say sorry I haven't posted. I'm a nursing student, my bedroom flooded on thurs and had to rip floor out so bedroom is currently in living room a AND my son swallowed a coin and wouldn't stop vomiting and we had to take him to ER today to have X-ray done (he is fine should pass...

I didn't get the second opinion because I posted his detailed blood work on a site specifically related to FIP and everyone was in agreement that all signs point in that direction. Thanks for checking back and your support :) I appreciate it very much.

We are not going to try and do the experimental drug PI we just can not due the 300$ a month cost right now. It was a hard decision.

He has been on steroids and antibiotics. He has gained a little weight but all his blood work points to DRY FIP. So we are keeping him happy and well fed and will return to vet in March to get one more blood draw to see his levels again. Just trying to enjoy the time we have left with him.

Seriously my hope just soared.....please please let it be Toxoplasmosis not ready to say goodbye!

Thank you oneandhalfcats. I will show my husband this article. He has had a steady appetite today :). So I will start antibiotics tomorrow. Give taz some time to get some nourishment in his body. He is anemic right now.

It is just a theory DX. It would have cost hundreds or more to confirm FIP DX. Yes elevated white blood cells IgG. The antibiotics were px again just on the off chance it is spirochete (lime) however fecal smear was normal. So therefore I am withholding antibiotics until taz puts on weight. The...

Not giving antibiotics at this time because of the cats low weight. If by chance he does have a reaction to antibiotics he will die. The vet thinks it's FIP dry. A elevated IgG blood levels suggest chorionic infection. Antibiotics only works for bacteria NOT viruses. The antibiotics were px on...

Hello everyone, We recently adopted a 1 year old kitty.  We have had him since late October and notice in the last month he was acting strange and had reduced appetite. My husband and I contributed it to a change in cat food at first.  Then a week or two went by and the symptoms worsened.  So...
