Özet: Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a viral contagious disease of all domestic and feral cats. A 2.5 years old male Persian breed cat was brought to the Teaching and Training Pet Hospital and Research Center, Purbachal, Dhaka, with a history of the lateral recumbent, swollen abdomen, breathing difficulty, and also no urination. A clinical examination revealed an accumulation of fluid in the abdomen and chest, and the cat was suspected of FIP.The blood sample was collected for the estimation of biochemical parameters like total protein (TP), albumin, bilirubin, SGPT, and SGOT. An X-ray and ultrasonography were performed to check the morphology of the abdomen, chest, and kidneys. Accumulation of fluid in the abdomen and chest, and decreased levels of total protein, albumin, and albumin-globulin ratio confirmed that the cat was affected by FIP. A Rivalta test was also performed to observe the changes in effusion fluid.As the prevalence of FIP is increasing nowadays, a proper diagnosis of this disease is required.
