Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / November 2003Natasha
She and 14 and has had lymphoma for 2 years now. She has been on Predizone every day and Leukeran 3 times a week until recently when it was upped to every other day. I have informed the vet that most of the time she acts like she is not feeling well - particularly after she eats. The x-ray showed there is something in her stomach but the vet cannot tell without going in there (and I don't want to put Natasha through that). The vet said to up the Leukeran to every day and see if there is some improvement. Otherwise, we may just be "out of gas." Her time may have come. I have had her since she was 9 months old and will miss her sorely. -- Debbie Trujillo >She and 14 and has had lymphoma for 2 years now.

It is hard to let them go but harder to see them suffer. Best wishes. MLB > From: m. L.

Does she take pepcid or aything to help her feel better? Thank you, Candace. It appears she is at the point where nothing can help. Her intestines are thickened and there appears to be a mass in her stomach (although the vet can't tell for sure what is there without surgery). She is hardly touching food anymore. I put down canned for her so she can lick the juice. I have made the decision to take her in Saturday. I want my husband to be with me. I will ask the vet tomorrow if there is something I can give her until then to make her comfortable. > The vet said to up the Leukeran to every day and see if there is some > improvement.

Oh Debbie, many of us know just how much this hurts, though every cat/human relationship is different. I still tear over just thinking of the cat I lost two years ago. I mostly want to say that I admire your decision to put limits on what you will put her through. It is another way--an admittedly strange way--for you to take care of your baby. You are both in my thoughts. > -- > > Debbie Trujillo > From: "Mary" <rosefan@email.com> > Organization: Road Runner - NC [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > admittedly strange way--for you to take care of your baby.

Hopefully the Leukeran will help, and Natasha will be able to live out her final days in comfort. Bless you for taking such good care of her. Karen > She and 14 and has had lymphoma for 2 years now.
