Welcome to PT.

I'm so sorry that your first few posts are about your sick cat.

I hope that it's nothing too serious and that it's easily treatable. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent your way. Please take care.

So, I dropped her off to the vet this morning for her biopsy. The vet was able to remove a good portion of the visible mass - which has decreased her massive hump and decreased some of the pressure on her right eye. The bad portion is that the vet said she thinks it is cancer. I will not know officially for 3-5 business days when the results of the biopsy state what it is and if it is cancer, what type it is. I just gave sydney a bowl of her favorite food and she seems to be in good spirits. These next few days, I am just going to focus on giving her the best love I can, and then take it from there. Thanks again for everyone being so supportive and everyone giving me some really helpful information. It is greatly appreciated.

So then it's good news, bad news. Good news is that the partial removal helped to relieve some pressure and that Sydney is in good spirits. If it is cancer, it doesn't necessarily mean a death sentence, not these days. We'll keep the prayers going and lots of (((HUGS))) headed your way.....

Good luck little kitty - PT prayers work wonders

When I first read this thread, the first thing I thought was Craftlady and Thumper. I'm glad she saw it and I hope you read through her threads on Thumpers journey.
I also hope that the vet is mistaken and it is NOT cancer as she suspects.
I will be thinking of you and Sydney this week.

**Frostfrog** · 06-03-2008, 06:26 PM

As are many others. Courage and hope.

Please let us know when you get the results.

kittykatherine:

Here is info I posted to Emeraldgreen a while back - she did email both ladies on the site, and one emailed her back. You might want to PM her for more info.

ALSO - ask your vet about a drug called Regressin (one link here: http://www.drugs.com/vet/regressin-v-can.html)

Two testimonials - and they have email addresses, so what the heck.
Cat cured of squamous cell tumor

Feline Tumor Gone!

"My cat Bodger, who is now16, has been taking the Transfer Factors Advanced Plus. Now, nearly 18 months later I've taken him back to the vet practice for a check up. He still has some discharge from the right side, but no blood and is generally in good health. I saw a different vet this time and he told me there was no way my cat had a nasal tumor of the type diagnosed back in August 2004, because if he had, he'd be dead due to the agressive nature of these type of tumor! He reckons he has sinusitus, due to the previous nasal damage as a kitten, which I always knew he had, but definitely NO TUMOR! So, what can I say but a fantastic result. You are very welcome to include this on your website if it will help others to help their pets. Incidentaly, the vet took all the information on Transfer Factors and was really interested having seen Bodger today." Judith Sexton torteval2 @ hotmail.com

Feline squamous cell tumor in remission
From Bethany in Texas email: fingerpaint<at>gmail.com

A year and a half ago, my cat was diagnosed with a squamous cell tumor. The doctor told me that given the location of this tumor and the aggressive nature of it, there really was nothing I could do. He told me to bring her back for weekly steroid shots and keep her comfortable until she died, which he said would most likely be within a month. She did nothing but lay around. She wouldn't eat, wouldn't play, wouldn't respond to affection. I did as he said, for one week. And then I decided I wasn't going to accept "there's nothing you can do" as an answer. I got on the internet. I googled furiously. What I found, was your site, and Transfer Factor.

I started her out on two (Transfer Factor Advanced Plus) pills a day, and within a week, she was back to her normal energy level. Within a month, she'd stopped clawing at her face. After three months, I went down to one pill a day, and that's where we are now, a year and a half later. She won't be fooled by putting the contents in her food, so I've used her fastidious nature against her: I mix the TF with a pinch of butter and put the mixture on her paws. She hates it, and licks it off immediately. She's learned to live with this daily ritual for the most part, but she still gets this "Oh mom, not AGAIN" look on her face. She's responded so wonderfully. It's like she's a kitten again, playing with her yarn and rubbing against my face. I look at her every day and am simply amazed, that the veterinian was going to be content with steroids until the poor thing finally died.

I recommended the Transfer Factor to my neighbor, whose 11 year old dog was diagnosed with bone cancer and given less than three months to live. That was a year ago - the dog is doing fine!

I'm sending positive thoughts that your dear Sydney will pull through this.

(((hugs)))

**dc_lost** · 06-06-2008, 01:27 AM

My heart and prayers are with you.

I take on my "kids" for life as well, and don't know of any other way since my folks brought me up like that.

Though I've been fostering since December and had almost all find their special homes, I got to love them so much while under my care I found such joy and happiness, and some sadness.

I know God has a plan for you and Sydney - What lessons he has in store know you I don't know, but I am praying for you and hope the biopopsy turns up something not cancerous.

(((Hugs))) for your strength

Debbie
