My cat has terminal cancer and she's been eating less and less (though when the mood strikes her she gobbles up her treats, so it's not like she's completely rejecting all food). But it only just occurred to me today (after she wet my bed) that she hasn't pooped in almost a week. She hasn't eaten a lot but what comes in must go out, right? I've given her some Friskies hairball treats throughout the week but nothing has come out.
I know I should probably take her to vet, I'm just so worried about what they'll tell me (ie they can't do anything for her, they have to put her to sleep) and on top of that, I'm going out of town for a few days starting Tuesday. I texted my boss to see if I could take Mon morning off and she's been really supportive of my poor kitty thus far but I have work that if I don't do someone else will have to and I'm also worried they are going to hate me. ;/
Where is the question here? I guess how bad is it that she hasn't pooped (keeping in mind she hasn't eaten that much and she's drinking water and peeing)? I really hope I don't have to take her to an emergency vet since it's a Sunday night. I've spent about $2,000 just getting her diagnosed with "nothing we can do" cancer. She is my first kitty and I've had her less than 2 years (though she's 11) so really just looking to others with more experience, thanks.
