I wouldn't know..besides of FIP it could be heart trouble and other conditions.
Sorry I can't reasure you. The vet can draw fluid and analyze it for protein
content, high protein is FIP. Last year and earlier this year we lost two
kittens to FIP almost a month apart. When they extracted fluid from the first
one it was clear but the analysis confirmed the high protein content. So dx was
FIP, later on vet found a large mass growing so concluded that he had
pancreatic cancer thus the fluid_at that point was greenish_his sister also got
a FIP dx, high prt fluid but more typical; yellow viscous fluid, no cancer.
I'm wishing all the best to you and your kitten

Subject: [Felvtalk] FeLV & Ascites?
My FeLV+ kitten developed ascites and I'm worried the vet is going to tell me
it's FIP. Does anyone know if ascites is ever related to FeLV?
