Hello,
First, let me say how very sorry I am that your little Wilbur is ill. Next, let me add that if you decide to not give him treatments I agree that this is an excellent decision. In March of this year I lost my wonderful black cat, Magic. He was only 13.
At the time he was diagnosed and following the vets recommendation, I did give him the treatments. In hindsight, I would never do it again. You think you are doing the right thing at the time and it is out of love for your animal that you make the decision. I was told he could live for perhaps three more years and have a quality life. He hated those vet visits and was always sick
afterwards. Four months before I lost him I stopped all medication because he was only
violently ill afterwards. He did enjoy his
last four months and was able to be outside on the deck and sleep in between the potted plants which he loved. I wish you much good luck with Wilbur. I am sure you love him very much.
