Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / December 2005Surgery
I have a 9 year old cat and it underwent surgery on Monday to have a tumor removed from its left flank. It lies down doing nothing, only drinking water. This evening it will be 72 hours of the operation. I'm waiting for the results of the biopsis. The Vet said that it was a huge tumor. I' m desperate that I cannot do anything for him. I tried to force son vitamins and very soft food made por him but he does not accept it I' willing to hear any advise. Thank you You should talk to the vet about his not eating. Try warming up meated baby foods without onion. Gail >I have a 9 year old cat and it underwent surgery on Monday to have a tumor >removed from its left flank.

It's dangerous for your cat to go this long without eating. If he needs to be force-fed, you may have to mix soft food and water (blenders work well) and syringe-feed him. The vet can help with a plan. Good luck, Rhonda > You should talk to the vet about his not eating. Try warming up meated baby > foods without onion.

Thank you Call the vet, they should be providing you with post-operative advice regarding your cat's condition. > I have a 9 year old cat and it underwent surgery on Monday to have a tumor > removed from its left flank.

If he doesn't recommend syringe feeding, I think you should take your cat to another vet as soon as possible. Your first loyalty is to your cat- not your vet. Good luck, Phil To Gail, Rhonda, Joe Canuck, Phil P. My deepest gratitude for your advices on Paris, my cat,post surgery. I wanted to get the most information about how to take care of him. I should say that the Vet has been very concerned about the cat and myself. He provided me with so much advise as you all have done. But nothing worked because Paris was invaded by a huge fibrosarcoma with necrotic core and today he lost his battle to that terrible monster. I am desolate and I never thought I could get to love so much my Little Paris. I did my best and he will always be in my heart. Again and again I thank you all from the botton of my heart and I wish you never have to go through this kind of grieving
