My moggy started limping badly on Thursday. The 1 1/2 weeks before that, I noticed he kept stopping when he walked, but no limp. Now it hurts him A LOT to be touched in the lower back area when he walks, but he shows no signs of pain when we touch him in the lower back area when he's resting. We saw the vet today (we went yesterday but he could not be examined as he was so angry). The vet says it's likely spinal lymphoma :'( The only way to know for sure is to undergo an MRI under general anesthesia, but I don't want to put him through that. There is not much the vet can do but give him prednisolone (which he was already on), painkillers and antibiotics (in case an infection is causing all this). Does anyone have any info on spinal lymphoma? Are there any alternative treatments that can help?
I'm devastated :'(
