Cat-to-abdominal transmission can cause a series of complications. Depending on the symptoms and the cat’s physical constitution, the probability of survival is also different, and death may occur at any time. Feline-transmitted peritonitis, also called feline infectious peritonitis, is caused by feline coronavirus. When cats are frightened, their environment changes, or their food is suddenly changed, the coronavirus may mutate, causing cats to suffer from peritonitis. The mortality rate of feline infectious peritonitis is very high, the disease onset is also rapid, and it is difficult to treat.

Tips

Cats infected with feline infectious peritonitis will have an enlarged abdomen, vomiting and diarrhea, and some may have difficulty breathing. If you find that your cats, especially cats raised in groups, have abdominal distension, or begin to vomit and have diarrhea, and are not willing to eat and have poor energy, you must investigate as soon as possible for better treatment results.
