❗❗❗ Most cases of FIP are caused by stress. Cats are animals with a strong stress response, and stress can lead to nervousness, fear, and decreased physical function, thereby triggering feline abdominal transmission.
No.1 Bathing
Bathing does not directly cause cats to transmit the virus, but it can cause significant stress reactions in cats. Once a cat carries the coronavirus, it can trigger feline transmission.
No.2 Move House
After moving, cats may experience stress due to discomfort in the new living environment.
No.3 Get Startled
Loud noises such as firecrackers, loud door closures, arguments, and the sound of things falling at home can all scare cats.
No.4 Sterilization
Most cat owners will sterilize cats, and cats with poor psychological and physical fitness are more prone to stress.
No.5 Contact with strangers and unfamiliar environments
Forced hugs from strangers and prolonged exposure to unfamiliar environments outside can cause stress in cats.
No.6 Getting vaccinated
Kittens are more prone to stress from getting vaccinated, mainly due to fear of needles and injections.
No.7 Loneliness
When parents go on a trip or business trip and leave home for multiple days, such as a week or more, cats may become nervous and fearful due to lack of companionship.
No.8 Other reasons
Cats falling from high places or experiencing other psychological pressures.
