    Poor little girl. I hope some way can be found to help her, or at least make her comfortable. How old is she now? It is very hard, sometimes, watching pets age.

    It hurts to watch them get older and infirm. My prayers are with Mitzi and you!

    I'm so very sorry to hear this news. It's so awful to see our furry loved ones get old and frail. I know how you feel, I've been there, done that.

    Mitzi has the most wonderful meowmie possible and I know that you will do anything to make her comfortable and when the time comes we will all be by your side.

    She's not old which is what breaks my heart. She's only 8 or 9. She had such a rough beginning to her little life and now this.

    Oh I'm so sorry. No matter the age, it's so difficult to watch our precious furkids get sick. She's far too young to experience this type of illness; I wish I could wave a magic wand and make it all go away. Prayers are going up right now for Mitzi and you......(((HUGS)))
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I've also been checking in with Nanxy Efrussy, the cat psychic. She says Mitzi is much older than the 8 or 9 that we suspect and that she thinks the tumor has metastasized to other parts of her body, besides the lungs.

    How horribly heartbreaking!

    If the tumour has not spread, and amputation is an option, see if a) the vet will take a deposit which I can chip in a bit for (and hopefully others too) and b) if they will take payments.

    HUGS and prayers going out for you and dearest Mitzi. If nothing else, I hope any pain can be eased and she cam be comfortable.

    I can only imagine how devastated you must feel right now. I lit a candle for you, but don't know how to post the link. My question for the vet would be if she had the amputation, how much more time would that give her and what quality of life would she have? I would also wonder how long the "after sir jury healing" would take.

    I can send a bit of money if that would help towards the cost. Anyone else?

    Prayers and love to you both.

    I am so sorry to hear this sad news.
    I do not have extra money right now, but I am expecting my tax return by the end of the month. I could give then, or if I have the vet info I could call and have them put some on my Care Credit account.
    Please let us know, as I'm sure you will, what your next step is.
    I will keep you in my thoughts.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
