    He is going to the vet in the morning. He has lost his balance and can't stand. I tried giving him food by hand and he bit my hand, he was so uncoordinated. I put the food in a bowl but after a couple bites he lost all his energy and passed out on my lap.
    I'll sure to give everyone a update when I get out of the vets office tomorrow.

    Oh God. The poor little thing sounds so, so sick. I really hope he's ok and the vet can help him. Please do let us know how he goes. Good luck.

    Unfortunity it is a sad update. High blood protein, weight loss ( only at 4.8 lb), incterus, fluid in abdomen. The vet says its FIP, feline infectious peritonitis. So he has less then two weeks........

    Oh no, God, I am so sorry for both you and the poor little kitten. Thanks for the update, I was really so hoping it was something treatable.
    I learned about FIP on Google this morning, what a horrible disease and whats worse is that there is absolutely nothing medically you can do except make them comfortable. This disease scares me, I can't believe they don't have a vaccine or anything for it by now.
    Makes me very sad to think about your kitten, good luck for the next couple of weeks.....
