Time is of the essence for me right now. I will probably not be spending too much time on here for a little while as my cat is very ill and needs much of my attention. I adopted him when he was 3 months old and he is now 14 months old. He has not been doing too well and I thought it was the stress of his new born litter about to be born that was causing him to not eat as much, but the litter is now 2 and a half weeks old, and he went for a turn for the worst last night. I had started feeding him more fatty foods in hopes to get him back up to his normal weight, my efforts didn't seen to make much of a difference. his muscle mass has deteriorated, and last night he gave me a fright that landed us in an emergency vet hospital. he tested negative for FIV however we found out that he may have lymphoma. Just in the last 2 months his weight had gone from 9.5lbs to 7.2lbs. I could not afford the x-ray last night so my biggest hope is that my knitting sales pick up very soon. we where given some medicine for the week to see if it helps him any, and I have gone to force feeding him a dose of KMR 3 times daily. However his prognosis according to the vet is still not looking good. I am praying for him, his health, and my sanity. I don't want to loose him, and I feel like I can't just sit by and watch him die regardless of my efforts to help him, but at the same time.... if he continues to get worse, I can't just let him suffer either.
