my vet believes my cat has wet FIP. distended belly filled with fluid for a week now. had xray and ultrasound done, and the fluid tested. it was very light almost clear yellow fluid and test showed high levels of protein. over the past week he has been sleeping most of the time and not himself, like the life has been sucked out of him. he has moments of being cuddly and purring, but mostly lays or sleeps. no fever. eating, drinking and using his litter box, although his appetite has decreased. he used to want to eat non stop and was the most affectionate kitty ever.
he is almost 5 mos, and we had him for 3 mos. he had diarrhea since we got him and cases of watery eyes/sneezing, which are all under control now.
no other symptoms.
the vet said that the best case scenario is him lasting till the end of the year...
pls share your experiences with wet FIP. what symptoms did your cat have, how did it go on, and how long till the cat was gone. i'm devastated. but most importantly need to know how to prepare my daughter for this. pls help!
