Overcoming FIP, I turned 3! ①

(This is a long post. Please skip if you're not comfortable.) I've rescued many cats since long ago, but my family and I both developed cat allergies. It's been over 10 years since I said goodbye to my last cat, and I thought I could never own a cat again.  Then, I learned that Siberian cats are less likely to cause allergies, and I confirmed I had no reaction at several pet shops. Just as I was about to get one, I discovered an organization that rehomed purebred cats.  Reading the line, 'To reduce the number of cats euthanized, even by one…,' I felt it was something I could do, so I adopted a cat.  Soon after bringing her home, she showed signs of FIP. She was over six months old and almost the same length as an adult cat, but weighed only 1.4kg. (Photos 1 and 2). Every day, I'd cry and beg her to 'eat,' trying every kind of food my sister sent me.  After visiting various vets, I found one who could treat her under insurance as much as possible with frequent visits. When treatment began, she had lost the fur on her ears due to malnutrition… (Photo 3). Sorry for the length. To be continued in ②.
