hi cat lovers,

just would like to know if any of you experience your cat having FIP?

may i know from where this decease comes from?

Hope this will help you to know about FIP.

Usually, cats diagnosed with FIP have very low chances of survival. However I have heard that the supplement Transfer Factor can help to boost up the cat's immune system and contain the diease.

within 1 week, 4 of my cat died due to this....at first the doc said normal fever, then doc gave antibiotic....a day after...gone....same goes to others, then the last 2 cat, went for check up, and the doc said got FIP cause showing some signs already....haih..

\

oh no.. that's sad .. hope the last 2 can survive .. perhaps need to quarantine ?

doc just called me up, as yesterday go take for blood test...

doc said that her body now is on hay wire....white blood cells are greater than the red blood cells, and the doc advice to bring it in and to jab on steroid....

i hope she can survive though!...damn it....


yeap..all quarantine....its just that, i dont know how and where this decease comes from...

is it from the food or stray cats or whatever?...

could be from strays if your cats are left outside. anyway need to clean up all the carpets especially.. so the house is free from the virus. (that's what it says on the article given )

thanks _mill....appreciate it alot..

If I am not mistaken some cats are born with FIP meaning to say that they are carriers and will not die from the diease however they can spread to other cats. The other cats will easily get infected with FIP especially when their immune body system is low. When the immune system is low, then the FIP will easily attack the cat especially in young kittens. That is why when we buy cats from breeders we must ensure that their cats is free from these kinds of dieases. Vets can only suspect a cat having FIP by looking at the hemoglobin of the cat. If the hemoglobin is dangerously high there is a high risk that the cat is suffering from it. A blood test that cost RM60.00 can also be done to determine if the cat has FIP but the test is not 100% accurate. Today negative and then few months down the road it will be positive. So.... basically FIP is a very complex diease.

Like the article says if you have multiple cats, try to keep them in small groups so that they are not prone to this diease as cats are easily stressed in large groups.

Also all cats must be vacinated on a regular basis to boost up their immune system so that their antibodies are strong.

Lastly, if you have cats that is confirmed having FIP and have died from it. Please clean your house with clorox. Mix 1 cap of clorox with half a bucket of water and mop the entire house for at least a week (especially where the cats like to be) and then wash their litter box with clorox (rinse properly with water to ensure clorox is removed). Do this with their feeding bowls too.

Then please do not get another new cat for at least 6 months as the FIP virus can be dormant for 1 year.

noted!.... many thanks!!!!

Stray cats are the easy scapegoat for all disease. Most people blame strays for bringing FIP, FIV or FELV. But they never think about the cats got this diseases from the vet clinic or boarding. My cat got his FELV when I boarded him while I was away. The next thing I know, he got FELV and spread it to his siblings and friends at home. 5 of my cats died due to FELV. As what Cutiepie69 post, it is hard to pin point where these diseases come from.

Compare to FELV, cats with FIP still got chance to survive. Cats with FELV equivalent human with AIDS. No cure at all.
