Fingers crossed they can now make advances in curing it.

This is awesome. I love people who do things like this. Now just for the therapies, diagnosis and cures for it.

That is awesome news! Next step--a cure or preventative vaccine! Then that damn vicious disease can't claim even one single additional cat. It is a terribly cruel disease and I will gladly dance on its grave.

This is such awesome news! It makes me very happy to hear this and I really hope it pulls through and they get some working/great treatments out. This is such a tragic and (in a way) common disease that has effected several of our members. Thank you so much for sharing!

I've never had a cat with FIP, thank goodness, but I have lost kitties to sudden/short term deaths and it is incredibly devastating and tragic. I'm so happy to hear this news and I cant wait to see this disease stamped out!
