My cat was essentially diagnosed with cancer today (I've posted about him in the Cat Health forum - the ultrasound showed a tumor that wasn't evident when he was examined by a vet earlier this month).
I've lurked in past posts, but if you have any advice on how to make the best of his remaining time and keep him comfortable, and when to recognize it's time to let him go, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Right now he's disinterested in food (maybe treats) and is lethargic, but he put up a fight when I got him into the carrier for the ultrasound, can still jump up on things, and still loves cuddles and scratches behind the ear. I'm more afraid of letting him go too soon when he's not ready to go and want his last moments to not be stressful. He's my best boy and I need to do right by him.
