Thank you. I held her paw the entire time. I kissed her and told her how much I loved her. I took the pain away from her and gave it to myself. I miss her so much.
Hello everyone, on Wednesday night I could just see in her face it was time. She was showing signs of pain. The prednisolone was no longer helping. I took Almond to the vet and her sinuses were completely destroyed. Unfortunately, her vet was right. Almond had a nasal tumor. I promised her she...
Hello, my 10 year old little girl named Almond had been having chronic upper respiratory congestion x 4 months. I took her to the Emergency Vet in May and she was diagnosed with an Upper Respiratory Infection treated with antibiotics. Her symptoms improved and I took her to her regular vet a...

Almond was seen last week by a new veterinarian. Her primary vet is convinced it is cancer. The new vet does not believe she has cancer. She assured me a polyp is definitely possible at her age. She helped give me additional resources, internal medicine and hospitals with CT. She added CBD and...
Thank you for sharing this information with me. Interesting an indoor only cat could get a fungal infection. I am still waiting for the appointment with internal medicine.
Most vets have very little experience with fungal infections, you were very fortunate to have found that vet. If I may ask, what is your cats name and age? What symptoms has your cats been experiencing?
Thank you for sharing this. I asked her vet about a possible fungal infection as Almond has a bad habit of drinking from the bathtub. She told me that was also unlikely and not seen in our geographical area. I asked if we could at least test for it, she again said there was no reason to test...
“Nasal polyps often develop as a result of chronic inflammation of the upper respiratory tract”. Interesting.. Almond has always had inflammation in her left eye since she was a kitten. She had a severe herpes infection when I adopted her. Her chronic inflammation she is currently dealing with...
Thank you so much for responding. She has an appointment with an internal medicine specialist next month. I agree with you, there has not been any definitive test result showing cancer, this is just her best guess. She said a polyp is not possible at her age.
My vet believes Almond has a nasal mass. I have been hoping and praying this could be chronic rhinitis or feline herpes virus and that her symptoms could be managed, but her vet is insistent she has a nasal mass. If anyone has any experience with a cat with a nasal mass I would appreciate your...
Yes, my cat has itching and watering in the one eye. She had herpes as a kitten and has always had draining from that eye. She is eating Royal Canin Adult Instinctive wet food and more recently she has been eating Fresh Pet chicken. Her vet is saying she has cancer, despite normal X-rays. I...
Thank you so much! I’m sorry you were dealing with this as well. Was your cat’s congestion bilateral or unilateral? I asked her vet about allergies and she did not feel that was likely. She definitely is more fussy after eating. They did X-rays during the nasal flush, nothing was visible on...
