Help Leo Beat FIP Again

Dear friends, family, and kind strangers,
We thought we were there. With all your amazing help and support, we truly believed Leo was completely cured.

A little over a year ago, Leo was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis). After a grueling 84-day treatment, he finally beat the disease and was cleared. We were overjoyed. But now, almost exactly one year later, we received the devastating news that Leo has suffered a relapse.

It started when he seemed to have a bit less energy. At first, we thought nothing was wrong, but then he almost completely stopped eating and began vomiting multiple times a day. That is when I got seriously worried. I rushed him to the vet immediately, and they performed emergency blood tests.

Sadly, we received the heartbreaking news that Leo has most likely relapsed. While we will get the official, definitive bloodwork results back in 5 days, the vet is already completely convinced that it is a FIP relapse. Because time is of the essence with this virus, they told us we must restart his medication as soon as possible.

I immediately reached out to the FIP admins and group members who helped me save his life the first time. The plan is in motion, and his new medication is already being shipped to us.

Why we need your help again:
Because a FIP relapse is much harder to fight, Leo needs a higher dosage of the medication than he did last year. This means the costs for his life-saving treatment, supportive care, and continuous vet check-ups are going to be significantly higher.

We gave everything we had to save him the first time, both emotionally and financially. Facing this mountain all over again is overwhelming, and we simply cannot do it alone. Leo is a true fighter, and we refuse to give up on him. He proved he can beat this once, and we want to give him the chance to beat it for good.

Every single euro raised will go directly towards buying his daily medication and covering his veterinary expenses over the next few months.

If you cannot donate, please consider sharing Leo’s story. A share on TikTok, Instagram, or Facebook means the world to us and brings us one step closer to saving our boy.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with us once again.

With love and hope,
Tristan & Leo
