Oh, my friend, my heart is breaking for you!!! Please give Merlin an extra kiss from me. All any of us can do in these situations, is love them and cuddle them as much as we can. Prayers will continue for you both.
No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

Having been through mouth cancer with Morgan, this thread is very hard for me to read. I have been checking back regularly though, hoping for good news. I'm so sorry to hear the diagnosis. Enjoy the time you can spend with Merlin to the full. Many thoughts are with you.
Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

Slick, I mentioned this to the vets today on the Ask the Vets radio show, and they talked quite a bit about his cancer, and what you can do to keep him comfiest in his remaining time with you. I'll email you the audio files when I get them, okay?

Karen, thank you so very much. He is still eating well but I can see signs of slight struggle when swallowing. I sure wish I could get that radio show up here. Do you happen to know what extension the audio files will have? Just want to make sure I am able to open it. Thanks again. Now it's time for Merlin's Magical Blend (that's what I call the med combo).Originally Posted by Karen

The doses of antibiotic and steroid will be finished tomorrow and I don't plan on renewing it. Today I stopped by the vets to pick up some more pain medication as it seems to be working. Last night he was actually playing with his catnip pillow for a bit. His output is good and his input is adequate. I feed him whatever he wants and whenever he wants it. He deserves that now.
Tonight I'm going to give him a bit of my short ribs - all chopped up of course.

Good boy, Merlin, your Meowmie loves you very, very much. We are so glad the pain medication is working and you are enjoying your food and playing with your catnip pillow.
We love you very, very much too, darling Merlin. We are sending all our love and prayers to you.
P.S., your beloved Sparkler especially sends her love.
