Posted by: catlover101 at Fri Nov 9 21:16:24 2007 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by catlover101 ] So here's an update... Winston has basically stopped eating the last few days, I noticed his bones were protuding, but he looked big because he was extremely bloated (stomach was big and hard to the touch)- so I took him to the vet. Vet took one look at him and says she's almost 100% sure he has FIP (he has actually lost a bit of weight since the last visit 3 weeks ago). She drained fluid out of his stomach and I guess it's the typical color of it. She drew blood to test him for it and I'll find out tomorrow morning when I take him in. If he has it, the vet recommended euthanizing him - because the death sentence is basically 2 days to 2 weeks in this condition - especially with him not eating. I'm soooo sad Oh, and now I have to get Bentley tested, because I guess it's quite contagious... I'm glad I did isolate Winston, but I don't know if it did any good. FIP is basically like HIV, where a cat's infected w/ a virus (I can't remember the name of it), but once it turns into FIP, like AIDS, it's deadly. Shelters don't typically test for it or at least the humane society doesn't, as that is where I got my two from and I guess a lot of cats carry it, but are immune.
