Good News!!! Smile

For those that remember that Dave had been given a terminal diagnosis of FIP about 18 months ago, l have a quick update.

He has been deteriorating over the last few months to the point where he was having several fits a week and pee'ing all over the house, having forgotten where his litter tray is.

After a frank discussion with our vet we decided that we would try steroids to reduce brain irritation, he is a different cat!! so much happier and content so going this afternoon for a long acting steroid.

I obviously spoke too soon!!

Dave clearly forgot where his litter tray is and thought that it was in the middle of our bed..............oh very yuk!! Confused

Doesn't seem to be having fits though so thats a good sign.
