    Elderly cat won't eat - possible IBD/lymphoma, not responding well to steroids

    His T4 is good. At the very beginning, all of his blood work was really good. He was very mildly anemic and had elevated monocytes earlier this week, though. He hasn't had any diarrhea, and no vomiting other than the first two vomits that sent us to the vet last month. He had another normal...

    Elderly cat won't eat - possible IBD/lymphoma, not responding well to steroids

    Hi, I'm new-ish. Had an account years ago and can't remember the log in. The reason I've come back is that my 18-year-old cat, Mister (the handsome boy in my avatar), stopped eating a month ago. He has been to the vet many times since the problem began and it's not getting better. Here's some...
