Josie's FIP Memorial

April 11, 2002 - August 1, 2008
Our sweet, precious, 6 year young Josie boy had been
suffering with a strange illness. After 5 - 6 visits to
our local vet, blood tests, antibiotics, etc. for 2
months we finally got a possible reason. Our vet took
some of Josie's belly fluid, tested it & confirmed FIP.
We tried everything possible including a visit overnight
at the University of Minnesota Small Animal Veterinary
Hospital. They did every test possible (as FIP is VERY
difficult to confirm), to come to the conclusion that
his poor little body had been ravaged by the disease FIP
so bad that nothing could be done. His body was eating
his muscle mass because he was no longer eating. They
called us and gave us the bad news, Josie only had days
to live. We drove down & sat with our little man, loved
him, stroked his most precious face, held & kissed his
beautiful paws & told him how much he meant to us each
and everyday we were blessed to have him. I requested
they give him some Valium so he could relax and he did,
for the first time in 2 months, he looked so rested. We
then set him free. I weep for you my baby boy. I now
live to see your sweet face again and enjoy your special
tricks. Rest In Peace my sweet child.

Warning
FIP is a horrible & devastating disease that takes a
feline life so quickly from it's loving human, and
diagnosis of is extremely difficult. Some people
on the internet claim to have cured their cats of FIP,
but it probably was just misdiagnosed and was some other
ailment. FIP mimics many other diseases, and our
veterinarian told us that the only absolute positive
test is with a biopsy. The fluid in a cat with wet FIP
can give some help in diagnosis, but is not always
enough. For more information about this awful disease as
well as some other vaulable resources, please go through
our site, and we hope that you find it helpful in your
time of need.
