I assume you mean FIP or feline infectious peritonitis. It can cause abdominal swelling due to fluid buildup in the abdomen and can also cause vomiting and diarrhea. FIP is a very serious fatal disease, however parasites that are easily treated can also cause these signs. I would take Sassy to a veterinarian so they can evaluate her and check her stool for parasites. Hopefully it's something easily fixed!
