Tails from a Vet Tech

Don’t miss out on Part 2 of our series on Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) with Dr. Sarah Jones.

In this episode, we explore symptoms that signal when treatment adjustments or veterinary help may be needed. Caregivers will gain valuable insights into monitoring their cat’s progress during FIP treatment. Administering FIP treatment can be stressful for both the cat and caregiver but we offer effective strategies to minimize stress for everyone involved.

Tune in for practical tips and expert advice to confidently navigate the complexities of FIP treatment.
