My kitty is almost 8 months old. He was dumped with his litter in a flooded area. Someone saw the guy dump them out his car window and was able to save all but mine..he was found days later. Long story short I fell in love with him right away and hes my bestfriend. Never thought I'd say that about a cat. Hes been on antibiotics for 6 months. Has a lump in his throat and on his head. Tested both...throat lump is ok..the head is melanoma.not known if cancerous so will probably freeze that and hope to kill any bad cells. His blood work came back horrible. His lymphosids went from 7,300 2 months ago to 12,500 now. Hes perfectly happy on antibiotics once a day now, but 48 hours without and he can barely breathe and mouth breathing. It's an awful thing to see. If anyone has any advice at this point I'm willing to try anything. I'm at the point of researching myself and asking the vet to research everything I find.
We are scheduling a chest xray next week. She said after that theres not much more they can do other than keeping him comfortable and hoping for the best. Praying something shows up on the xray.
And asked her to please research this tonight.
Just hoping maybe there is a vet here or someone that went through this that can offer some advice.
Will also mention he is on lysine, an immune booster, saline drops, and some powder I put on his food...probiotic. we have literally tried EVERYTHING. He seems so happy most of the time. Hard to imagine hes sick. Husband is about to deploy and we like to put money away beforehand but this is making it impossible. Hoping the vet starts cutting us a break.
