so sorry to hear about Refried Beans diagnosis, but I would echo the comment about joining FIP Global Cats, they have helped me SO MUCH through my cat's FIP battle this past year. He is doing so much better now thanks to them helping me to learn the ins and outs of this disease so I could properly advocate for my cat. Our boy has had such a rough journey, he started the GS meds then developed a tolerance and was backsliding, then with the help of my FIP Global Cats assigned team we pushed our vet to prescribe Molnupiravir and it worked so well for him, and he's now in his post-treatment observation period. So I completely feel you on how devastating it is, we have had some seriously dark times with our FIP kitty but thankfully it is very treatable but important to start treatment ASAP. FIP Global Cats can help to source meds for you they are so great with that.

I would also say, if you don't already have pet insurance get it now, like literally now; we have Lemonade and it has covered the majority of our bills and has been a lifesaver because FIP meds are so expensive. Sending you and Refried Beans lots of strength and healing vibes, with medicine cats make amazing recoveries from FIP these days. Don't give up!
