NGPR: My cat

in Trying to Get Pregnant

I know I don't know any of you. In fact, I feel a little akward about this. For about 6 weeks now, my 5 year old cat has been throwing up 1-3 times a day. I took her to the Emergency vet 4 weeks ago. They did x-rays, didn't see an obstruction, and sent us home after giving her some anti-nausea medicine. They told us to just watch her.

We switched her food and things started looking better. She started keeping things down and eating more. This week she started throwing up again. I took her to the vet today, (my regular) and immediately he said "Oh, no" while feeling her belly. She has a golf ball sized mass on the right side of her abdomen.

He took bloodwork today, and said we're looking at surgery on Monday. He sent her home because she isn't dehydrated and told us to watch her and he'd call us with results tomorrow.

I just need some prayers and good wishes for my baby Bella. I lost her twin 4 years ago to a liver malfunction.

Thanks.Broken Heart

    I'm a fellow cat lover.  I'm so sorry to hear about your kitty.  Did he say what the mass could be?  A bowel obstruction or tumor?  Hopefully its benign and all works out.

    Sending your kitty lots of GL!

    I'm so sorry I hope your  cat gets well soon and everything turns out okay.  I have cats and I know how emotional I get when one of them is sick.

    Well, he said he doesn't think it's cancer, because it's rare in her age. He doesn't think it's her Liver, because it sits higher up than where the mass was. He said could be; her spleen and in that event we remove it. A large lymph node, and we remove that too. Part of her bowels, we remove it. If infact it is her liver, then we remove that part. IDK, she's not acting herself, and I just want her to be OK. If it gets to the point that she is suffering though, we'll put her to sleep.

    Oh no! Poor kitty :(

    I have a cat, too, so I know I'd feel the way you are.

    I am so sorry to hear about your poor baby kitty.  I went through something similar w/my older dog...turned out to be pancreatitis...she is fine now though.  I hope the surgery goes well, you will be in my prayers!
