Zoe has cancer

[Randi]

I'm so sorry about Zoe, poor girl. But it's good you managed to get some liquid down her gullet, that's important. I hope she is not in pain. Give her all the love and care you can, until you have to say goodbye... I know you will.

Sending my best wishes and comfort to both of you.

Give her some love from all of us, please!

You are such a good, caring Meowmie to precious Zoe, Candace. The love that you and she share shines through in every word you write.

We are sending our love and prayers and warm energies to you both, and to the other kitties too.

I hope Zoe can get the depo-medrol injection. I can imagine that anything in her mouth is uncomfortable.
I'm glad that you were able to syringe feed her. Zoe couldn't ask for a more loving and dedicated mom.

Thank you all so much.

I went out to my walking group as usual this morning and a couple of them are on Facebook. Of course then half the group knew what was up; many of them have pets and have the heartbreak of losing one. I got quite a few hugs and was in tears (darn it! If no one had said anything I would be ok...!)

So many good and caring people - I am beyond blessed.

I was able to get hold of her again and get 12 ml of warmed Whiskas cat milk, water and painkiller into her. I do it a bit at a time and she isn't getting as upset about it. I think she realizes she feels a lot better afterwards.

It's 25 minutes to 6 and no call from the vet yet. Of course, I know a lot of "extras" get discussed at the end of the day so I may even get a call after 6 pm.

I just want Zoe to feel better for a few days and to be able to eat and drink. I did get prices on the euth and urn so I'm not being unrealistic. I hope.

I didn't hear from my vet today. Things can happen - I believe I'll hear from them in the morning.

I crushed more prednisone and put it in the liquefied cat food. I gave her over 3 syringes of the stuff - over 30 ml.

A few minutes ago I gave her the Whiskas milk with gabapentin, again over 30 ml. I add water to both formulas.

She is out and about more today.

I'm glad to hear you managed to give her some liquid, that is bound to help her feel at least a little better. I hope the vet can give her the depo-medrol injection, also.

Best wishes!
