The simple judgment of FIP is actually relatively simple. According to the daily behavior of the cat at home, it can be judged which stage it is in. The following is a detailed description of the status of FIP cats at each stage based on my experience. OK.
Early symptoms of FIP:
Loss of appetite (but you can still eat), persistent and recurrent fever (39.8-40.6 degrees, higher at dusk, and gradually decreases at night), listlessness (playing occasionally), weight loss, increased abdominal circumference/abdominal breathing ( Dry ascites, B-ultrasound will have nodules), mild anemia (or no anemia), dry and dull hair, often squatting hens.
Symptoms of FIP in the middle stage:
Significant loss of appetite (but still eat snacks and nutrition cream), depression (but can still add hair and wash face), significant weight loss, jaundice (yellowing ears, yellow nose, especially yellow urine), obvious increase in abdominal girth/abdomen Type breathing (dry ascites, enlarged nodules on B-ultrasound), moderate to mild anemia (HCT less than 28, white nose), malnutrition, persistent and recurrent fever (39.8-40.6 degrees, higher at dusk , will gradually fall at night), and often the hen squats.
Late symptoms of FIP:
Loss of appetite (basically does not eat anything), depression (will hide and sleep all the time), excessive weight loss, increased abdominal circumference, dyspnea (dry ascites without chest, large nodules in B-ultrasound), malnutrition, moderate to severe Anemia (HCT less than 20, white nose and meat pads), jaundice (yellow skin all over the body, especially yellow urine), persistent and recurrent fever (same as above), shaking of hind legs (unable to stand in severe cases), eyeball lesions (uveal inflammation, iritis), convulsions (generalized convulsions, nystagmus, incontinence)
Parents usually pay more attention to observe the cat. If there are any of the above conditions, go for examination and treatment as soon as possible. The sooner the FIP is found, the better the treatment effect will be. If it is delayed to the late stage, not only the dosage should be increased, but also if the cat is particularly weak due to early complications, Maybe GS-441524 could not save lives.
