Aw, thanks! Ha I always call her plush... yes, I guess it could be but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Thanks so much for your supporting words. I'm trying not to jump to conclusions about cancer. But I'd rather know than not. Then part of me thinks maybe she's fine, she hasn't vomited at all this week, maybe I'm over-worrying... but I'd rather have it looked at.
Edit: and I should say I joined this site when my first cat was diagnosed with lung cancer that had spread from her abdomen..everyone was so supportive and wonderful I appreciated it so much.
Oh I find UrineOff works really well on the vomit!
And ach sorry! I think I misunderstood your question about the avatar! Not to worry, it was my fault.
LTS3 , I am a bit surprised it might be IBD to be honest because she hasn't had diarrhea or weight-loss, but now I've read that vomiting is a common sign. Not every case will present the same in every cat just like humans. I know strep throat commonly presents with a fever but when I was a kid I got it every winter at least once and never with a fever. I had to convince Dr's to culture me and every time it came out positive!
Yes, I guess I'm not really sure about these hydrolyzed diets... I'd rather go for a novel protein even if it means I have to get a non-Rx food. Thanks for the link! I feel very tentative about raw diets, but I will check it out! How is your kitty doing now and how long was the diagnosis?
