thanks, belinda.

i get tired, sometimes, of responding to every bit of misinformation, and
i'd passed my quota for that day.

 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.
