Thank you. I'm not going to wait for our regular vet to come back, he's going somewhere else. I stopped by PetSmart this weekend to pick up some vitamins (couldn't find any liquid ones like the vet recommended), and found they now have an animal hospital there. Would have talked to someone, but of course they weren't there on Sunday. Had lots of literature out though, and found info on a couple of other diseases with symptoms that include swollen lymph nodes. He may have cancer, but I want to know this for sure. That she doesn't want to confirm it with the aspiration bugs me, and yet she's able to say she's 99% sure it's cancer. Good news is that his appetite seems to have pick up. I've been giving him his vitamin & pill cocktail in a can of food, but now he's going back to eating his dry food. May not mean anything, but it makes me feel better.
