What a nice things to say, Marlyn - you are making me cry more.. It's very difficult with this diseases - as they did not come diseased before they came to my house - FIP is a disease that produced by multihouse cat household - so I am the main part of the reasons why they have had this disease and I just can't change that..

Rikki is proof that there is a god. Who else could ensure that such a loving little one could find a safe, caring home with someone strong enough to handle all the problems he and his friends have? And who else could give you the strength to care for his creations, little critters that have been abandoned or abused or simply uncared for? I really understand what you mean and you have been hit hard. I don't know why these things happen. I am confident that some of us are made to suffer horribly to care for those who need our care. It doesn't seem right at all but it is the way it is. We would all like a world that was perfect---no pain, no suffering, no broken hearts. I believe we will find that world when we finally leave this one. I don't know all the various religious takes on this. I just know that Rikki is a little bit of God sent to comfort you and love you and for you to care for and love. As are all the other little ones who have found you. When he returns to God he will sit on His/Her lap and purr and tell Him/Her how wonderful you have been. God has a very big lap. He/She has to have with all the little ones telling Him/Her how great you are. They will also tell Him/Her how very sad you are and He/She will send you added strength and peace. They will visit you often if you let them. You see, they are truly God's Angels. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

May all the angels watch after you and Rikki. He is so lucky to have you and he knows it. He does not want you to be sad and he doesn't want to be the cause of that sadness. Little darlings that come to us the way he came to you know so much and love so genuinely. Peace to you both and all the other little ones.

Hi, please pray for my most gentle kitty, Rikki - Rikki was abandoned by someone who lived at an apartment where I was renting several years ago,, they left him behind.. he was living under the bush until I decided to bring him home - he somehow was tested incorrectly as FIV a few years ago, but it turned out false positive and he has been such a sweet and kind addition to my family - A several months ago, I noticed that he started losing weight, and did a couple of blood work and they always come back pretty normal.. most of my kitties have high globulin - so FIP is never completely ignored.. but I have had lots of corona virus cats for the past 7 years or so.. so I had stopped worrying about FIP - until a few months ago, when I started losing my babies one after the other to FIP - My vet thinks that ARF is a result of FIP - and he maybe losing sight gradually (not to due to BP -as it's normal) - it also happens with FIP - He has been on IV all day today and I am bringing back tomorrow day time to get some more --- I just feel so helpless - I am so devastated and cannot even cry - Everyone please pray that a miracle will happen and my Rikki will feel better - he does not deserve this...
