Hi Michelle! Unfortunately, not much improvement...he stays a the vet's office during the day for fluids and supportive therapy...his appetite is still close to nil and now he is combating severe diarrhea! The vet is trying everything she can think of and Ewok is being such a little sweet

Thanks, Tonya! Yeah, I think there may have been something up with the list over the weekend...hopefully the problem has been resolved! :) Ewok, so far, is doing pretty well...he's breathing much easier so I take that as good news that the tumor is shrinking...I'm trying not to get my hopes up

He's been feeling punky the last couple of weeks...to my untrained eye, it almost seems as though he's having an allergic reaction to something...he's scratching like mad around his face and neck (despite the use of flea meds--Advantage). But whether or not the scratching is related to the fact

Dear Jen, Prayers, good wishes, crossed fingers; all of it! On the way! Poor little fellow. I know that allergies (even to airborne things) can sometimes express themselves as skin problems in cats. They can also get asthma. Maybe he IS allergic to something and it's hitting as a double whammy.

My itchy allergy cat Mythic suffers though similar things. Hopefully you can get it cleared up, and it wont be an ongoing thing. They really suffer alot if you can't eliminate the cause. Maybe it's something in the air that will go away quickly! I'm hoping that is the case for Ewok
