Hi All,
I brought my cat in for an ultrasound yesterday to check on his kidneys and
his stomach. Lately, he's not been eating very much and he has been having
bad constipation. He's had constipation his whole life - he'll normallly
have to run around the house for a while before he'll make a trip to his
liter tray to poop.
Anyways, the vet found a suspicious looking lump in his small intestine. He
thinks it could be lymphoma. He said to not do a biopsy as yet as he would
rather treat him to build up his immune system to see if he'll respond to
this. The prognosis given on his kidneys is fair, my vet says Abu (that's my
sweetheart's name) can live for many years with his kidneys being the way
they are. He gave Abu a steroid and immunoregulin injection yesterday and
I'm to follow up giving him this twice a week on top of some herbal
remedies. He'll also start Abu on Silver Collagen soon.
Can anyone help me explain what could be happening? I'm so worried I don't
know what to do now. He was eating well yesterday and he's eating today.
He's generally still a very happy cat.
Thanks
Leen and Abu
