My cat is 15 years old and he just turned 15 and seemed like he was acting fine. But very gradually since then he’s been losing weight, not eating, and has lesions in his mouth and trouble keeping his balance. This has all happened very rapidly.
And we took him to the vet today and they kept him to run some tests. 6 hours later they called us and told us to come back so they could talk to us. We are expecting the worse but my dad got another call reminding us to come back (we didn’t go as soon as they called us) and said “he’s doing great!” and didn’t say anything else.
And like…. i’m expecting the worse still. But why would she say that? Please don’t give me false hope if my cat is dying please don’t say he’s doing great.
My dad and I are outside the vet waiting for my mom because she wants to see him too. IDK what the vet is goin to say. The treatment they wanted to do cost us $750 and idk if they did it all already or they’re canceling it because they found out early in the testing that he isn’t going to make it.
IDK what to think or do. I’ve had this cat since I was 10 years old. I am 25. I’ve had him since he was a baby. I’m devastated and I don’t even know what the results are yet.
he’s diabetic and his sugar is really high and he needs insulin. but the insulin would lower his blood sugar and if he’s not eating then it’ll lower the blood sugar too much and could kill him.
he’s dehydrated and has dry impacted feces. his organs are all fine except his kidneys which are slightly bad
the not eating is almost definitely because of the lesions in his mouth, which they can’t remove because he can’t go under anesthesia because of the diabetes
so. we have him now and we’re trying to get him to drink but he won’t. he goes back to the vet tomorrow and they’re going to keep him and start on insulin and fluids and hopefully get him to eat
in other news, i want to die
they’re putting him down because there’s just too much going on with him and i’m going to die too
bye y’all it’s been fun
