“I adopted a cat in February, and he showed signs of illness just one week later. He had developed FIP (Feline infectious peritonitis), which comes from a mutation of feline coronavirus. FIP was 100 percent fatal until only 5 years ago. My sweet Rumple was just declared CURED! I'm so grateful to the many people who helped me save my boy, and that there are now fully legalized treatments for FIP in the U.S.”

“Happy birthday to my oldest daughter, Michelle Cottingham. I can't believe you're 36 years old. Have the best day!!!”
