So Clyde passed in Jan. Within two weeks we noticed Spoon losing weight. She's kind of a community cat who hangs around, and very timid. I took her into the vet and... it's not great. The two main values they check for her liver are off the charts. One is at least twice what it should be, the other is 50 percent higher than normal. My vet wants to do an ultrasound, which I CANNOT afford after Clyde. So he wants to start her on antibiotics for 30 days, retest, and see what's changed.
Guys, I'm heartbroken. Clyde just passed, my cockatiel is dying, my rabbits are sick, and I'm rehoming Rue Sunday. Losing another cat is horrible. My vet wouldn't be really clear on what kinds of things we're looking for just yet.
I can't bring myself to Google it in fear that I'll find out it's cancer and she'll be dead in two days. Has anyone had a cat that's been okay if they've had liver problems? And lived a long life? She's lost a LOT of weight, but is drinking well. I think she's eating, but since she's free fed I haven't been sure. I'm watching, though.
Spoon is only ten. Which is old, but not that old. She's my last connection to my very first cat ever. I'm steeling myself for the worst, but hoping that maybe - maybe - she has something she can beat.
