<unk>  <unk>  is a positive-stranded RNA virus that infects cats worldwide. It is a<unk>  of the species Alphacoronavirus 1 which includes canine<unk>  (CCoV) and porcine transmissible gastroenteritis<unk>  (TGEV). It has two different forms:<unk>  enteric<unk>  (FECV) that infects the intestines and<unk>  infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) that causes the disease<unk>  infectious peritonitis (FIP).<unk>  is typically shed in feces by healthy cats and transmitted by the fecal-oral route to other cats. In environments with multiple cats, the transmission rate is much higher compared to single-cat environments. The virus is insignificant until mutations cause the virus to be transformed from FECV to FIPV. FIPV causes<unk>  infectious peritonitis, for which treatment is generally symptomatic and palliative only. The drug GS-441524 shows promise as an antiviral treatment for FIP, but at the moment it's only available on the black market and still requires further research.
