Our Samson has been losing weight for awhile. At first, it looked like it might be a dental-related thing, but after dental work, the problem has persisted. My husband took him back to the vet last Friday, and they did some bloodwork, thinking it might be hyperthyroid, but that isn't the case. Now they are thinking he could be in kidney failure. He is going back into the vet's on Thursday of this week so they can do a urinalysis. (No way with 3 little kids and 3 cats in the house that we can get a sample here.) He is around 13 years old, we think (came to us as a stray, so the age is strictly an estimate). We're preparing ourselves for the worst and hoping for the best.
