Feline Coronavirus is typically shed in feces by health cats and transmitted by the fecal-oral route to other cats.[2] In environments with multiple cats, the transmission rate is much higher compared to single cat environments.[1] The virus is insignificant until mutations cause the virus to be transformed from FECV to FIPV.[1] FIPV causes Feline infectious peritonitis for which there is no known cure; treatment is generally symptomatic and palliative only.
