Thoughts weighing on my mind...

Yesterday I took Max (our 14yr old grey kitty) to the vet. For a month he has lost weight and acted hungry but not wanting to eat. I called the vet right away for an appointment when I first noticed him not eating. The closest date they could give me was last week.

We took him in and she felt a lump down by his intestines but because he had a fever she didnt want to do anything until she found out if he could go "Number two". That and we gave him antibiotics for his fever to bring it down. I was so scared because the only way to tell what was his problem was through exploratory surgery.

So back to yesterday. With tears in my eyes I handed him over to the much trusted vet and waited to hear from her. She called me and said that she found a Mast Tumor in his intestines. She removed it all but this is still an iffy time. She said its 50/50 but she is hopeful.

She is supposed to call today. I've been worried out of my mind for Max. He is very important to me, as is all my furkids, because he was my grandmother's. We have formed such a close bond and we all love him so so dearly.

I had to type out my thoughts if only to help calm myself. Thanks for reading my friends.

Here is a picture of Max.
