Kitty with fibrosarcoma

[krazyaboutkatz]

Welcome to PT. I'm so sorry to hear about Tiger. Although I haven't experienced this type of cancer before, my Sunny had squamous cell carcinoma which was a very aggressive form of cancer. He had it in his lower jaw. I could've put him through chemo and radiation treatments but there was no guarantee and it was also very expensive. I just decided to try to keep him as comfortable as possible and my vet gave me a time line of 3-5 months.

I found out in early Dec.2009 and I had Sunny put down on Feb. 28th 2010. I just watched for his quality of life and he began losing a lot weight, not eating very well, and throwing up a lot of the food that he had eaten. He also seemed to be very tired most of the time and in some pain. I know it's a hard thing to say goodbye but letting a beloved animal go is a very kind thing to do. They are then pain free and aren't suffering any more. Sunny was only 9 years old and he had been with me since he was 8 months old. I miss him every day but I know that he's in a better place.

I'll keep Tiger in my thoughts and prayers and I'm sure that he'll let you know when his time has come. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
