Before we could get the appointment, Edgar died today. He was laying on my Lap with his head in my hand, the way he liked to nap since he was a kitten.

Edgar is no longer having good days and we've made the decision to let him go. Thank you all for the support. I really hoped for a different outcome. I feel like I tried everything I could. If I could change anything I would have maintained the prednisone dose and started sub q fluids earlier...

Edgar's lost weight. The move was hard on him. He's adjusting slowly. He doesn't love all the windows like Id hoped but it's quiet and I know he likes that! He's back on 7.5 mg prednisone and eating better. I give him sub q fluids at 100 ml a day. He had his chemo on the 9th and that's when...

@Loriloveskitties how's spike doing? Unfortunately, I woke up at 7am to the sound of construction and Edgar vomiting for the first time in 2 weeks. He's so stressed and there's nothing I can do. I have 2 sound machines, the bathroom vent fan running and the radio on but I still hear sawing...

Hi everyone! Edgar's been doing so well I've almost forgotten he's sick. I think that's why i haven't been here. Everyday he's eating so well and playing. He's his old self. He hasn't needed any nausea meds. He's only taking prednisone every other day at 5mg now. I don't know if it's the...

@Loriloveskitties, thank you! We're just getting through each day. I feel the tumour because he's getting thinner and it's getting larger. I've lost hope about shrinking the cancer and am focusing Edgar's comfort and happiness. The prednisone makes all the difference. He's barely eating so...

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the support. Today, Edgar ate a few bites of bone marrow but he was making a strange noise when eating it. It sounded like a rattle or gasp. I noticed a lump for the first time today. pictures were taken yesterday.

I hope you guys are doing okay. :heartshape::vibes:

Edgar had his scans today and the lymphoma has progressed. He started a new treatment called Lomustine and he received a 10mg capsule. They put him back on prednisone 7.5 mg. His weight went down to 7.8 lb. After taking the prednisone he came and sat in my lap. He climbed the steps and talked to...

Edgar update: I wish i could say that he's doing well but he's barely eating and mostly lethargic. It's getting to where i feel really awful for stretching this out. The oncology visit is Friday and scans will be done. Edgar's spending all day in the sunroom looking out and sleeping. He...

Hi! @Loriloveskitties The vet took him off of prednisone. He didn't have to get chemo today because some weeks there are breaks. I thought not having chemo he would have a little more energy and appetite but he is having a bad day today. :(

@kittyprincesss I'm so sorry to hear about your sweet girl. We found out Edgar has large cell lymphoma Jan 2 after he started having symptoms exactly a month ago. He has had 4 weekly treatments of chemo (Madison Wisconsin Protocol) that rotates 3 chemotherapy drugs, Vincristine, Cytoxan, and...

Hi! I hope your talk with the vet goes well. That's good news about Yoshi getting her appetite back again. I'm with you on the roller-coaster :sniffle::woohoo::sigh: To answer your question, I totally spy on Edgar's poop's. It may be constipation because he is refusing the commercial cat food...

I agree with them about the anti-nausea and the sub-q fluids! That being said, Edgar is on Cerenia but was still smacking and walking away from food, seemingly nauseated, Mon-Wed morning. After sub-q fluids and Cerenia by injection he came home ready to eat. I think his appetite came back due to...
