"Toni - my cat has been sick for about 5 months now. In March she just plain
stopped eating and began loosing weight. She is 13 years old this past June
and she has always been 11.2 lbs. We have had her to the vet so much, and
tried to find out WHY she wasn't eating. This morning I again took her to the
vet because she again has lost a lot of weight while we were away on vacation. She is now down to 6 lbs 4 oz.
The Dr. is now fairly sure that it is cancer and our chances are slim. Even if it turns out to be the one cancer that he says has a good recover rate with chemo - the odds are that we would only extend her life about 2 years. So Ken and I have decided to put her out of her misery so today I have an apt at 4:40 to put her to sleep.
I have had her since she was only 6 weeks old and we have been through so much together. She has been the BEST companion a person could hope for and she was my best friend when I was single. I am having such a hard time right now with this decision and having an even harder time trying to get my fingers to type this message.
So PLEASE, say some prayers for us. I so badly need God's arms around
me right now.
