Byron,

From someone whose family has nursed many cats through various cancers, a visit to the oncologist is strongly recommended. At least listen to the options. They will tell you if the cancer is too far progressed to do anything. Also, Prednisone can take up to a week to work in kitties, especially if they have already stopped eating and are becoming weaker. My parents cats that have had cancer have benefitted from surgery and lived another year to two years, with some fluids needed along the way, but definitely had the quality of life we wanted for them all the while. It's just so hard to see them suffer in the beginning and it's hard when the costs start to add up, so you have to do what's right for you and Baby Jane. You and Baby Jane are in my thoughts and prayers. My kitty, Baby, sends Baby Jane purrs and kisses.
