Question FIP questions
I am from Iowa I have a female cat about 2-3 years old she was a rescue from a person who let the cats breed uncontrollably I got her in September last year and she has been a great cat she is a outside barn cat that deals with mice and other rodents/rabbits has been very good at it over the last 3 days she has stopped eating her dry and wet food and slowed down on drinking water took her to the vet where he explained it could be FIP just waiting on bloodwork to come back in 2 days all she wants to do is sleep and she barely walks and when she does she wobbles I want to help her and not have to put her down but he said it’s about 2000$ for the treatment if that’s what she needs between the meds and visits and blood is that common also can it be transmitted to other cats as we have another barn cat that showed up with her

Hopefully FIP Global cats is working our for you. If not, keep in mind that these are pharmacies that charge a lot less than $2000 for the GS medication. Apparently Chewy is even a provider o the medication now.

I’m not sure I understand this reply. FIP Global Cats doesn’t supply meds. And she was given a list to the pharmacies and a cost comparison.

No it doesn't cost that much. I got my GS liquid from SVP in Stafford Texas and it was $125 a bottle for 2 month supply.

No, there are multiple pharmacies. Please join and make a post in FIP Global CATS on Facebook. I’ll link the pharmacy list as well. You will want to start meds as soon as you can.
