With all due respect, if your cat had FIP, it would be dead by now.

Lethargy can mean so many different things. It can point to so many different areas.

I noticed the first signs of FIP on May 20th. That was the first visit to the vet. The first sign was indeed, lethargy.

On June 20th my boy was dead. That's how quickly FIP overtakes a cat. The first sign is lethargy. And usually, within a month or two, the cat dies. It's a horrible, terrible, awful thing to go through.

From what you've described in your initial and followup posts, this doesn't sound like FIP. But, I'm not an expert either. I'm not a vet. Just a cat owner who just lost his little boy from a disease he knew very little about two weeks ago.

Be happy! FIP is a death sentence. And, if you treat your cat like your child, it's a terrible thing to go through.
