We are so sorry for your sad loss! It is always hard to lose our beloved pets. Sometimes there is just nothing anyone can do, which makes it harder. Thank you for writing and for watching the video.

MY TYLER, lived (15 yrs.) with FIP. Indoor only, well fed, finally neutered. Had pneumonia when he came inside. It was good food and love that kept him alive.

My kitten Alvin was diagnosed with FIP in February. The vet originally did not suspect it because he was experiencing neurological symptoms and she was not familiar with that being a symptom of FIP. He passed away within days of his first recognizable symptoms. FIP is a terrible disease and I hope we are able to eradicate it some day. We vlogged much of Alvin's life and are so happy to have those memories of him. We finally decided we are ready to get another cat and got our new baby Marco. He seems healthy as can be so far so we are hopeful that FIP is behind us.

Hi I also just lost a kitten to what the vet suspects is FIP. He also presented only with neurological signs, and died within a day of the onset of seizures. He had no fever on intake, and had a cyclical fever from then out. He never really regained consciousness after the onset of seizure clusters. Thank you for your comment and your videos about Alvin. It was helpful for me.

thank you for nice presentation

We just lost our second cat to FIP wet form on 7/2/18. Prior to the recent death of our beloved pet we lost a kitten to FIP dry form six months ago. The two kittens came from different shelters and we believe the kitten that died six months ago brought it with her. We have a cat left and pray to God he will not die next.

"So these coronaviruses being as mutable as they are, being able to recombine, can be a really scary event." That did not age well.

Need your opinion please. Three 10 week old kittens (the first from a different litter, and the other two sibling brothers from another litter) that I rescued and entrusted to a rescue organization to find fosters or adopters for wind up having to be euthanized for FIP within 7 months of each other. Is this not statistically unusual and suspicious? I know from early photos that I took that these 3 kittens were kept in the same cage. The first kitten to develop FIP, she says, was confirmed on necropsy. Is this just a run of bad luck, or do you think keeping the two sibling brothers in her garage for 7 months, with no opportunity for socialization, minimal attention and care, and other stressors, contributed to the coronavirus mutating? Note that there were 3 other siblings to the two brothers, who were only in her possession for 12 days before I took them for fostering and socialization who are all healthy and got adopted. I had the two brothers -- they were sick and a mess when they were given back to me for fostering and socialization, and I painfully witnessed one decline with ataxia and urinary incontinence, and the other I did get adopted through another rescue org. and his adopters had to witness the same. This has been a very painful experience for me. I blame this rescue org. person for keeping these kittens in her garage for 7 months and thus compromising not only their sociability but health. I think if they had gotten out to foster (I could have done it) they would have been fine. I don't think it was just a run of bad luck. She will also not answer to any of this and has behaved very dishonorably. She just blames it on FIP. Thank you for any input.

Sorry thanks en greatings

Now is a cure ! Quite expensive but cure and hope for cats owners. Hugo my cat is fighting during the treatment. The Facebook group and help of our vet we found the injections that going to save his life. 🥺✨ thanks for this presentation.

I wish there was something that can be done about this virus. My cat just started having seizures. She seemed perfectly healthy. Within days, she now has a fever, and is sneezing. Wish there was treatment. She is 6 years old.

Thank you for your comment and for watching the video, Laney. We're so sorry to hear about your cat. While we do not have answers, we suggest you keep an eye on current FIP research (Google searches and the like). We wish you and your kitty all the best!

40 years ago every cat with FIP also had FELV. Today we see more cases of FIP in cats without FELv in the past 10 years that we have stopped vaccinating cats for FIP. Yet another case of glass house

I just lost my four year old cat to wet FIP. Now we are concerned the other cats I have will all die. My mother's nothing but doomsday. Nothibgnis going right and I don't know what to do.

Hello Whyntir and thank you for watching. We are so sorry about your cat. Research has shown that the best way to prevent the other cats from contracting the disease is to keep clean their living area, food and water bowls, and litter box. An article from the Cornell School of Veterinary Medicine states, "Cats with FIP are often treated with corticosteroids, cytotoxic drugs, and antibiotics. Supportive care may also include fluid therapy, draining accumulated fluids, and blood transfusions. Research is ongoing to find other immunosuppressive drugs that may slow down the progress of the disease. Attempts are also being made to find antiviral drugs that will prevent or slow down the replication of the virus. One promising approach currently being studied combines both an antiviral agent and an immune response modifier. In multiple cat environments, keeping cats as healthy as possible and minimizing exposure to infectious agents decreases the likelihood of cats developing FIP. Litter boxes should be kept clean and located away from food and water dishes. Litter should be cleansed of feces daily, and the box should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected regularly. Newly acquired cats and any cats that are suspected of being infected should be separated from other cats. Preventing overcrowding, keeping cats current on vaccinations, and providing proper nutrition can also help decrease the occurrence of FIP in groups of cats. There is only one licensed FIP vaccine available; however, this vaccine has minimal if any effectiveness in preventing FIP, and it is not generally recommended by the American Association of Feline Practitioners Feline Vaccine Advisory Panel. Primucell FIP, produced by Pfizer Animal Health, is a temperature-sensitive, modified-live virus vaccine that is given as an intranasal vaccine, and is licensed for use in cats at least 16 weeks of age. The vaccine appears to be safe, but the risks and benefits of vaccination should be weighed carefully. Cat owners should consult their veterinarian to help them decide if their cat should be vaccinated." Have your vet check out the other cats for symptoms of FIP. Disinfection of your home is very important. You can watch videos about disinfection on our website here: www.maddiesfund.org/search-results.htm?q=disinfection&cx=008247662567946873345%3Apozorpuwyo0

My cat was just diagnosed with fip. Is there anything I can do to save her? She shows no symptoms and doesn’t fit any of the typical criteria to contract it. I love her so much and will do anything I can to give her a chance.

Thank you for watching the video. We're so sorry about your cat. Continue to consult with your veterinarian. Here is more information about FIP: www.merckvetmanual.com/generalized-conditions/feline-infectious-peritonitis/overview-of-feline-infectious-peritonitis

A few moments were spent covering how to clean and disinfect, but is there any more detailed information available regarding the inactivation of FCoV via thermal means, UV radiation, or specific disinfection agents like ethyl alcohol?

Hello Raja, if you have not taken your kitten to your veterinarian, please do so. More information about this disease can be found on the Cornell University School of Veterinary Medicine's website www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/Health_Information/brochure_ftp.cfm. Here is a quote from that webpage: "Unfortunately, there is no known cure or effective treatment for FIP at this time. Some treatments may induce short-term remissions in a small percentage of cats; however, FIP is a fatal disease. Treatment is generally aimed at supportive care, such as good nursing care and nutrition, and alleviating the inflammatory response of the disease. Cats with FIP are often treated with corticosteroids, cytotoxic drugs, and antibiotics. Supportive care may also include fluid therapy, draining accumulated fluids, and blood transfusions. Research is ongoing to find other immunosuppressive drugs that may slow down the progress of the disease. Attempts are also being made to find antiviral drugs that will prevent or slow down the replication of the virus. One promising approach currently being studied combines both an antiviral agent and an immune response modifier."

Now we have humans dying form COrona virus, as well. I am so tired of hearing DRS> call all this crap "SELF-LIMITING".

Hoi de kat is langzaam uit de zone gekomen dat zijn afweetsysteem weer wat beter kan beschermen Rennen eten glimmende ogen. Ben erg blij met het resoltaat.

O sorry, Bij ons heeft een buiten kat FIP in de natte form. De lezing is in het algemeen dat: een virus slecht manifesteert in een alkalische omgeving. Daarom wil ik me richten op de ondersteuning van de ph lv. Gisteren begonnen met een kleinbeetje baksoda in de smeerleverworst. Vandaag hebben we ook tijm gehaald. Aangezien de droge variant nat wordt als de T cel productie afneemt. Timus of wel tijm heet zo omdat deze kruid de Timus ondersteunt waardoor de Tcellen weer hopelijk toeneemt mijn vraag was kan ik hier de ontwikkeling stil setter of op zijn minst tegenweken?

In het filmpje het is een virus en droog wordt nat . Onze oude josua heb wij ook nog 3 jaar gegeven en het vocht was ook weg uit zijn buik maar uw filmpje vertelde mij dat josua dus ook FIP had. Ik wist wat het was simptoomgezien maar nooit dat het FIP was. In deze situatie sou het fijn zijn als de patiënt amandelen zou eten Groetjes

Kan je ook vragen welke dieren er nog meer bij waren toen de volgende samenvoeging de virus weer schadeloos gesteld werd. In mijn beleving werd het waar honden en katten samen gaan. Dus Denk ik nu dat de kruising corona tussen honden en katten trikkert of hebben ze alle bij de zelfde soor. Mischien dat een ander dier zijn firus stop zet . Oa heb amandelen gemalen tot pulp met tijm en zeewier deze helpt het lichaam het afal de werwijderen en de amandel zuurverlager en dna reperatuur. Afgelopen 3 dagen een vierde theelepel baksoda gegeven morgen laatste keer weet niet of er cristal forming kan ontstaan. Beter voorkomen dan genezen. Vanaf nu wordt elke dag zijn natte voer gemengd met mijn preperaat. De kat leeft langzaam op en voelde zich wat gangbaarder.. Maar nu ik het beestje een naam ken geven hebben we josua 3 extra en goeie jaren gegeven Met probiotica ( kefir) gember en zuur verlagende voeding En is uiteindelijk gestorven ouder dan 18 met een hart lekkage en vocht achter zijn longen. Maar het vocht in zijn buik was helemaal verdwenen in een loop van 2 maanden knoken waren verdwenen allen de vlekjes in zijn ogen niet. die bleven. Alvast hele grote dankjewel Groetjes

Gene therapy! It's the future of medicine.

Why do you keep saying YOU, "you can get it" "your organs will" ...etc. That's kinda rude, and people cannot get FIP.

Great presentation !
