Cornell vet has found a gene? they have been searching for?

Anyway the most fatal incurable feline virus they have found "the thread"

so this means they can develop an immunization for feline peritonitis

I believe feral communities are carrying antibodies not previously utilized

call me crazy..go ahead

I'm not sure of the connection you're making to feral cats, especially as FIP is common to catteries and shelters, not feral colonies. :dk:

But yes, it's very exciting they've located the gene that causes the mutation!
