In this case report, a male Tekir cat was brought to Atatürk University Veterinary Faculty Animal Hospital with complaints of loss of appetite and weakness. Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) was detected with the rapid diagnostic test kit and the cat died despite treatment. At necropsy, multifocal foci were found in the liver, kidney, lung, heart and brain tissues. Microscopic examination revealed granulomatous foci in the lung, liver and kidney, as well as interstitial nephritis in the kidney. Inflammatory cell infiltrates were detected in the epicardium layer of the heart, necrosis in Peyer's patches in the ileum layer of the intestine, and necrosis in the center of the follicles in the spleen. There was meningoencephalitis in the brain. In this case report, macroscopic and microscopic findings seen in tissues and organs of FIP disease provided support to the literature on the diagnosis of FIP disease.
