Stars glad to hear that she seems better behaved with the new regimen
NJ22 that sounds like an interesting podcast
Tweety glad work was OK
Dianah glad the cat is doing well
Work was good yesterday, nothing unexpected and no new cases.
Did get the cat into the vet after work yesterday, a repeat X-ray and ultrasound shows some sort of abdominal mass. With the equipment there they couldn't get a clear view. So I'm going to call a veterinary imaging provider who can do a more detailed ultrasound. I know it's almost certainly something malignant, but I figure I owe to it the cat to check in the unlikely event that it's something treatable
In the meantime we're trying steroids to improve symptoms and improve appetite, after the first dose some increased energy but no appetite. Apparently cats can go a few days without eating before liver damage results, so we have some time. But if this doesn't work then we're pretty much out of options
Decided to keep the day off today, will take the cat in for the advanced ultrasound if I can get an appointment today. Otherwise plan to take it easy, spend some time bird watching this morning
