We adopted a stray cat 4 years ago but we were kinda slow about spaying (I feel very guilty). My sister was insisting but I was scared of the operation in case something goes wrong and we lose her or something bad would happen to her so I would put it off. Last year we finally took her to the vet but after doing blood test they found out she had low white blood cells and that they couldn't do a surgery because of her weak immune system. First vets told us to give her probiotics but it didn't work. Then they gave meds but it didn't work either. They said there is an affective but very expensive medication which is for humans but we couldn't afford it. This year we took her to another vet and her wbc levels were still low. She got treatment that costed 2500$ and vets told us there isn't any better treatment option than that. And gave us 100% chance. But no, nothing got better, in fact her wbc dropped from 6,60 to 4,80. But both times the blood tests were done she was in heat cycle. I don't know if it would affect her wbc. Around that time she was in heat nonstop, her cycle would end and begin again after a week. In the end they said they could do the operation but we didn't want it because when we first took her to vet they said it's dangerous and they can't do it. She didn't get any better so why do it now? We thought she had to live like this forever but it's been 9 months and she's constantly in heat and we are worried for her. Her cycles last for 7-8 days and happens too often.
What are we supposed to do now? Give her anesthesia even though she might not wake up again? I love her so much and she's only 4 years old. We've changed her vet countless times I couldn't trust any of them. The last vet didn't even give us any explanation about why this could be happening. Says she's never seen anything like it.
Could her wbc levels low because the tests were done when she was in heat? We wanted to take her to vet while she wasn't in her cycle but it happens way too frequently. She's always had low appetite and some cat foods make her vomit right after eating. She weighs around 3.5kg but she's always been like that. We're afraid something bad might happen to her after surgery so we don't want to get her spayed but as I said she's in heat too often it's hard for all of us plus she might get other diseases because of not getting spayed. Someone please help
