In my opinion, you should separate both of them giving them their own bowls for water and food. Yes, you still keep your kitten although he has FIP. By the way, where do you obtain this kitten? If it's from a breeder, you need to inform the breeder about this. If you are in doubt with your vet prognosis, you can always go to a second vet for his / her opinion. Hope the info helps Hi Natasha,

My vet has said that the chances of her getting it are very slim. Can i keep him alive until he dies as we love him dearly and do not have the heart to put him down. And also if i am understanding everything i have read then the positive result does not neccessarily mean he has FIP Hi
