Have a male cat with the wet form of FIP. In the early to mid stages.
Everything I have read on FIP says it is incurable. Found a new book
PETS AT RISK  by Dr. Plechner who says he has a 70% success rate in
curing FIP. I've talked to 2 vets and they have never heard of any
successful treatment. Has anyone had any experience with treating FIP?
Miracle the leukemia cat with herpes in the eyes was taken to an
opthalmalogist who said there was nothing to be done since his leukemia
was advanced. I took him to another vet the same day for another opinion
and it was the same - his leukemia was to advanced so he was put out of
his suffering.                                     Again I am asking for
any new info on FIP that might help Comet. This new treatment  does not
seem to be working and I'm going to have to be making a decision I
really don't want to.

Why not contact Dr. Plechner and see what he says?

Dr. Plechner was contacted and he was consulted with the vet here.
