Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a viral disease caused by feline coronavirus (FCoV). This virus is a mutant of feline enteric coronavirus (FeCV) which cannot be easily defeated through a cat's natural immune response. FCoV will infect white blood cells and spread through the cat’s body. The disease is progressive and can be fatal if left unattended. It is estimated that this disease can kill 1.4% of cats around the world.FIP can be divided into two categories, the effusive (wet) form and the non-effusive (dry) form. Common symptoms of FIP include loss of appetite, fever, depression, and weight loss. Cats can evolve from one FIP form into another form from time to time.
