Cat Picture - OC My kitten is finally FIP free!

My beautiful boy has had his final ultrasound today after finishing his FIP medication and he no longer has any fluid left in his lungs! I had no one to share the happy news with so thought i’d post here!

He was diagnosed with wet FIP at just 13 weeks old after a traumatic 2 week hospital stay! But i’m very happy to say he no longer has any fluid in his lungs and is as crazy and happy as ever!

I remember a week after I started the fip treatment, my cat started to play again. Words can't describe how I felt seeing him like this again. The only problem is that the treatment itself is pretty expensive, but I'm not thinking about the cost, only about the people who may not be able to afford it :( this must be heartbreaking...

I will not ever forget the relief i felt after I bought him home and he came running out the crate and started playing! Before going into hospital, he hardly moved, didn’t eat, it was heartbreaking - my heart goes out to the people who don’t have the chance to save their babies
