I got him to eat a little but he has lost more weight and just Sleeps. I even called other vets that were sugested and they can not help him.
I was hopeing he would last longer. I ahve to decide what to do now.

Yes its a tough thing. My first cat Mitten - I had to make that choice - he was a healthy 14 lb cat most of his life. When he got cancer, he went down to a walking skeleton of 6-7 lbs. I knew it would be the last time I took him to the vet but I didn't think it was fair to let him suffer any more.

With Spooky (my 15 1/2 yr old) - I didn't have to make that decision - he died of a heart attack one morning.

Is he in any serious pain right now? Is he still playing and dinking around?? I know you said you got him to eat a little bit but did it seem to help? Did it perk him up??

With Glitch I was always afrraid that I was going to do it too soon, or too late!!! When It was time, he let me know. He kinda of told me. He have me that look in his eyes that said, let me rest. Im tired now. When I took him in there they were amaised he was still allive and if they were to give him sub fluids he may last for a few more days, I knew right then what I had to do. My kitten was asking me to be pts. If there is no quality of life, like there was with Glitch, who couldn't sit propperly hhis head would shake, he wouldn't eat,I think he was just holding on for me!!

Your kitty will tell you when its time.

I think it will be this week. I do have to take Coco Thursday or Friday for her Urine Test to see if she still has the Bladder Infectio which i think she does. I am not sure if Yoshi can even make it to then. He looks older then Coco and she is almost 16. He dosent want to play and is starting to Purr less. He Drinks alot of Water but still is Dehydrated. Im not even sure he will even last this week. If he is worse before Coco goes to the Vet we will have to take him to be Pts before Thurs or Fri.
