This still doesn't mean a cat has FIP, if nothing else fits most vets will assume it is FIP but the absolute ONLY way to 100% confirm it is FIP is with a necropsy.

I'm sorry I have to keep harping on this but with all the misinformation out there about FIP (same as with FeLV) still today and new people always joining the list I don't want anyone to get and spread incorrect information. There are enough things in this world to get freaked out about without adding false ones.

When a vet says a cat is positive for FIP he is wrong, he may be positive and with high titers for the corona viruses that are suspected to cause FIP but that doesn't in most cases mean he has FIP.

Unless it is the "wet" form, then fluid can be pulled from the cat's stomach and tested.
