Roo seems to be feeling better than she did on Sunday and Monday (she had me pretty scared those two days
) I think she probably had caught the virus Spyder had the other week, she is not sneezing as much since she started taking the antbiotic. And she is continuing to eat a little better as well.


Purrs and headbutts from Roo for all of the good vibes headed her way, it's wonderful to know her TCS family is cheering her on!

Diane--I just read about your Roo and I am so sorry about the news! I was going to suggest another expert opinion/radiation etc as some others did but if Roo is that frail and you and the vet think it would only make things worse for her...certainly nobody wants the sweet baby to suffer needlessly. So I will add tons of hugs and cuddles and headbutts for Roo--and of course lots of prayers that she still has much good time left with you, spent in peace and comfort. She is lucky to have such a loving mama to care for her and love her--and do please spoil sweet Roo absolutely rotten!!! I will keep you and Roo in my thoughts and prayers--and sometimes miracles do happen--and love can do amazing things....God bless you and your sweet girl.

Thanks again everyone! Your good thoughts and vibes are so much appreciated!


Roo's tumor doesn't seem to be growing or at least not as fast as it was, which I hope is good news.

After getting her antibiotics and her increase thyroid meds...she starting to fight getting her meds!
I guess she is starting to feel better.

That she has "FIGHT" in her is a good thing! (Well, good for her....might be a little stressful for you! :-)

Thought I'd post an update on Roo.

She is still eating and drinking fairly well. But the tumor is starting to affect her eye on her right side, it is now smaller than the other one and the third eyelid is showing on that eye as well. And she is starting to lose her balance easily


All she wanted today was to be held. She's such a sweetie I hate to see her health failing


Here's a pic of her taken the other week, you can see the tumor right on her forehead over her nose fairly well.

Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m sorry about your cat. Be strong for her. Play with her and act as if nothing is wrong, try to act happy. My sister had a cat that couldnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t walk with both of his back legs. I used to play with him a lot. Every time I opened the front door he would jump down the sofa to see me. It was extremely painful so see him like that. Be strong.
