I have given her tuna with food, the Reveal tuna, other styles of food. I've sat by her on the floor with a plate, tried to give it to her by hand. She just ate a little more but still not much. She just isn't herself - she has been lethargic, not cleaning, not very vocal. But it's hard because when I look in her eyes I still see her. I will be checking in with the vet's office later to let them know and see what they think. I hate having to make the decision when it isn't as obvious as it has been in the past for me for other animals. I don't want her to suffer or be in pain, but I don't want to make the call too early. Thank you for all of the advice and info you have shared with me during this.
The vet said he could do an oncology referral but they likely will want some type of biopsy and I am not sure at this point if I want to have her go through that. Something to consider and ask, though. Thank you.
I am following this thread and I’m so sorry to hear what you are going through, I know how exhausting it is and how hard it is to concentrate on anything else. I just want you to know that both you and Winnie are in my thoughts and I so hope she picks up soon xxThank you. The vet thinks with how she is acting that is likely lymphoma, but of course can't be sure. He gave her a shot of depo so I don't have to do the oral steroids for a week, and a shot of Cerenia. However he did say if she continues like this and I can't get her to eat, I'd have to consider what none of us want to.
Thanks so much.
Thank you. When I call the vet I'll go over options and see what they think as well.
Thank you. I know, I wish they did. So many realizations keep hitting me to remind me she's not here.
So sorry to hear that!
If only they really did have nine lives.
I’m so very sorry to hear this. It’s so unfair when our loved ones develop such horrible diseases and are taken from us way too soon. I can see from the thread that you did all you could to help Winnie. I had my boy in the avatar pts last March, he had pancreatitis and severe IBD or possible lymphoma. He was 8 years old. I don’t know how I would have got through it without the caring and wonderful people on this site. My thoughts and prayers are with you and remember we are all here for you xxx
Thank you and yes sadly a similar battle, my heart goes out to you. Take care and it’s good to talk xxx
Thank you so much. I'm so sorry about your boy. He was handsome. Sounds like we went through a similar battle.
I am so sorry you went through it and are going through it again. And thank you for saying that. In my heart I know I did, and many people have told me that, but I still have second doubts/guilt. I guess that just happens. Best of luck with your boy.
