POET - ONE OF OUR FIP SURVIVORS! 🩷
This year, we devastatingly had 4 kittens and 3 cats diagnosed with the dreaded FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis).
Fortunately, FIP is now treatable if caught early – but treatment comes at a significant cost.
Poet was just over 9 weeks old when she became critically unwell. She spent 9 nights in ICU, having been discharged and then readmitted as her condition worsened. At only 11 weeks of age, Poet's weight had dropped to an alarming 236 grams 💔
Due to her tiny size, the vets were unable to draw blood. Despite intensive supportive care, Poet simply wasn't improving...
As a last-ditch attempt, FIP treatment was started.
And then something incredible happened...
POET STARTED TO IMPROVE!
She began gaining weight, became brighter and more active, and slowly returned to being the happy, healthy kitten she was always meant to be.
Poet completed her full 84-day FIP treatment, followed by the 84-day observation period.
POET HAS SURVIVED THIS INSIDIOUS DISEASE! ❤️
But saving Poet came at a cost of more than $7,000.... Money we simply don't have tucked away 🥲
