Help Arnold fight FIP

Donation protected

Arnold was a Balinese street cat before he came to us 4 years ago, and adopted us. Since then he has won over our hearts, as well as all our neighbors. We've caught him napping in all the surrounding houses in our area.

2 Weeks ago Arnold's appetite had been decreasing, and he was losing weight. When we took him to the vet, we could never have imagined the results and diagnosis.

The results indicated that Arnold is suffering from kidney disease, and liver issues and as a result, is dangerously anemic. After 1 week of treatment and no improvement, we conducted various more tests to find the cause of the organ issues; Wet FIP.

In short, FIP is a deadly viral disease that affects cats. FIP is caused by a type of coronavirus called feline coronavirus (FCoV). Arnold's form of FIP (Wet FIP) attacks the kidney, and liver, amongst other organs.

We have started the treatment for FIP for the past 2 weeks, and we've already seen improvements in his strength, appetite, and color (he was yellow during the first week). He has even started purring and grooming again.

The only treatment for FIP is GS 441524, which is extremely expensive and needs to be given everyday for 28 weeks. We have been paying for the past 2 weeks on our own, but the bills are starting to pile up. We wish to give Arnold, the best chance of survival. We don’t want him to miss out on life because we couldn’t afford to continue the treatment. 

We love Arnold with all our hearts and see him as part of our family.

Any donation big or small will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much. 
Arnold and family.
