Hi! My name is Sasha. I have an adorable 6-month-old kitten named Calypso. Calypso was a completely healthy kitten when she suddenly had difficulty using her hind legs. The veterinarian described it as being unable to find her legs in space, also known as ataxia. Along with the ataxia, she also had a fever. The leading diagnosis of Calypso's condition is a severe and fatal condition called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), if left untreated. We have been treating the condition with oral antivirals with minimal improvement. Because she has the neurological form of the disease, the injectable form of the medicine is really the best option. The injectable version of this medicine is only available on the black market as it has not been FDA approved. For that reason, it is extremely expensive. If you can find it within your heart to contribute to Calypso's recovery, I would deeply appreciate it. Thank you for considering.
