You are doing everything possible. I am visualizing a healthy little Bear for
Christmas and for the year. Much love to you. I know how you feel. My sweet
Bunny girl passed on my birthday of this year. Somehow it's more difficult if
it's on a special day or time of year. But she had FeLv. She turned negative
for a whole year, then suddenly turned positive. On the other paw, all my FIV+
cats seem to live normal, long lives so there's hope for Bear if he can get
through this crisis. A transfusion is very good. It will give his body a chance
to turn things around without too much stress on his organs.

Turns out it does not look like FIP, looks like hemolytic anemia, where he is
killing off his own red blood cells, and the vet simply did not keep him on a
high enough dose of immune-suppressants so he crashed again. Now he is really
bad. I don't know what his chances are at this point, but I do not think they
are good, though the vets say he can turn around. He just got a transfusion and
they are starting him on cyclosporine, a stronger immune suppressant. And
doxycycline.
