She is so cute! I am the same way with my cat, any little tiny sign that something is different and I freak out. Granted, recently there has been reason to freak out, but in the past 12 years, I have overreacted every time! I'm glad she's ok!

Hi everyone, Sabrina went to the oncologist today. I think my local vet gave me false hope - they indicated it was unlikely to spread, but the oncologist said that within 6-9 months it will most likely spread to her lungs and BOOM, that will be it. I find it very hard to believe this - she has NO sy...

Traci,

Would it be possible for me to e-mail you the vet reports? I can't figure out how to post them here

Ok, just had a quick talk with the vet-I'm getting her records and histology report tonight. Her bump is "subcuteous" and the person who did the biopsy said "observe for local reoccurrence and metastsis". Does that mean anything?

My regular vet sent the chart notes to an oncologist, who suggested chemo for Sabrina. I have a consult with the oncologist a week from tomorrow, but everyone ...

I took her back to the vet, and they gave her prednizone, (that's spelled wrong), and that seems to have her all back to normal! I think it was a combination of allergies and respiratory issues that were making her cranky, but she hasn't coughed or sneezed, and she is purring again! Thank you, Traci!

That would be litter box, not letterbox! Sabrina is awesome, but she can't write letters yet.

My cat, Sabrina, has stopped purring! She recently had a doctor appointment with bloodwork (about a month ago), and everything was normal. She is eating, drinking, using the letterbox and walking and sleeping like normal. But her personality is a lot more serious, she's become a bit antisocial (not ...
