Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Lolo! I don't think we can tell based on response to medications. Especially if it is a slow response. If she has FIP they can have good and bad days. I would ask for testing so you know. FIP has a poor prognosis and you should know as best as you can if that is what she has so you do not put her through too much. Also if you want to repost with more specifics on Lolo's symptoms I may be able to help better.
