When your cat begins FIP medication, it’s natural for any pet parent in India to feel anxious, emotional, or unsure of what to do next. Many cat owners tell us:

"I just want to help my cat recover. I hope I’m doing everything right."

The encouraging news is that many cats start improving within days of receiving antiviral medication. And the support you provide at home plays a crucial role in their recovery.

4 Essential Tips to Support Your Cat During FIP Medication

1. Create a calm, safe, and comfortable resting space

Cats on FIP medication often feel weak, tired, or easily stressed.A peaceful environment helps them rest better and recover faster.

Ways you can help:

• Set up a quiet, warm corner for them to rest

• Limit noise, sudden movement, and household activity

• Keep other pets from disturbing your cat

• Provide soft blankets or a cozy bed

• Maintain a consistent daily routine

A calm environment makes a big difference in your cat’s emotional and physical healing.

2. Support the liver, kidneys, and overall strength with supplements

During FIP medication, the liver and kidneys work harder than usual.Your cat may experience changes in appetite, mild dehydration, or fluctuations in blood test values.

Using supportive supplements can help keep your cat stable and comfortable.

Recommended supplements (commonly used by BasmiFIP India customers):

• LiverRxGood for cats with high liver enzymes, reduced appetite, or liver stress.

• KidneyRxHelps maintain hydration, kidney comfort, and overall stability — especially useful for senior cats.

These supplements do not replace antiviral medication, but they help the body cope better during the process.

How to use supplements safely:

• Consult your veterinarian before starting any supplement

• Track appetite, hydration, weight, and energy daily

• Follow the full medication protocol without interruption

A well-supported body responds much better to FIP medication.

3. Monitor your cat’s condition every single day
