I'm sorry to hear the news....

Hi.

Im really sorry to hear this news Stuart.

I know you will treasure every moment you have together.

Take care.

I'm so, so sorry.

Doubtless you know that cancer just took one of ours.

All I can say is what Ed-puss taught me in the last month or so - he doesn't know what's happening - treasure every day - try not to think about what's coming (I know, I couldn't stop myself, but try).

And it's true that you'd know if he were in pain, so don't worry about that.

I am sorry that the bloods didn't show anything more positive Stuart, I think you are doing the right thing by not giving him the treatment, and I do hope he exceeds the vets expectations. While deep down we know our babies wont be with us forever, it is news like this that hammers it home, and makes things hard, but he will enjoy life regardless, he has no concept of time in that respect, and just treasure every day with him, and make sure you have plenty of pics and happy memories.

with Bluto (he died of kidney cancer so might not be the same) the first sign he was going down hill was a lack of co-ordinatation - not trying to scare you or upset you but its worth knowing because I didn't have a clue - I just put it down to him getting on a bit

Stuart · « **Reply #36 on:** January 20, 2009, 15:16:39 PM »

Thank's again folks
I look at Misty now and He's still Misty

although today he's back to gravy licking again

Like you say Gill, just because I now know what's wrong with Him, He's still the Same, untill they have an off day

then it all hit's home and the misery set's in

the vet also told me that it won't be the cancer that will take Him (although that is the underlying cause for His illness)
but it will probably be kidney failure. (this is bad) but I feel a wee bit of relief knowing that, and will know what to look out
for and what to expect as I went through the same with Hamish

as you have all said, I will now be Taking it day by day

Thank You all again, Your support means so much to me

I am so sorry Stuart and know exactly how you are feeling.

I try to tell myself that Franta is no worse now than he was before I knew the story and thats working better now but its taken all month and unlike Misty he never tucks into nice food.

I think that you must tell yourself the same and then it sorta calms down until they have a bad day........sigh

Its the shock of actually being told and the time it takes to sink in and then the misery.

Like everyone says take each day one by one and give him lots of cuddles from me and franta sends furry headbuts and pushes and a meowwwwwwwwwww

Really so sorry to hear this Stuart

.

It's so very difficult to get a time limit out of your head once a vet has mentioned something but we all know the vet can't really know how long Misty has left. You always knew Misty was getting on and has a limited span like us all. Try to think back to that reality not the vet's guess and enjoy Misty as he is now

bonnielass · « **Reply #32 on:** January 19, 2009, 21:58:45 PM »

Try (tho its hard ) not to think of a time limit with Misty,just take each day that comes and treasure the memories that you will be making with him.

CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls · « **Reply #31 on:** January 19, 2009, 20:37:37 PM »

Oh my goodness, Im so sorry to hear this

I hope Misty has many more good times to come

Millys Mum · « **Reply #30 on:** January 19, 2009, 20:22:04 PM »

Sorry Stuart

Stuart · « **Reply #29 on:** January 19, 2009, 20:16:14 PM »

Thanks Guy's,
although this past month Misty has had a couple of bad day's , not really eating he's just licking the gravy off his food
still been lapping up his milk and drinking water
Right at this moment He's as bright as a button and is currently tucking into a large piece of freshly cooked Salmon
Looking at him tucking in, I still find it hard to digest that I only have a limited amount of time left with him

can't think of anything else to say, I wont let him suffer

Thank's again for your understanding and support

I'm very sorry to hear this news and hope you have a long time left together yet

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #27 on:** January 19, 2009, 19:07:12 PM »

So sorry to hear this Stuart

You know we're all here for you

Gillian Harvey · « **Reply #26 on:** January 19, 2009, 19:01:05 PM »

So sorry Stuart

give Misty an extra cuddle from me

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #25 on:** January 19, 2009, 17:52:22 PM »

I'm sorry to hear this Stuart. I too would make the same decision in the same circumstances

Take each day as it comes and I hope there are many, many more of them.

pappilon · « **Reply #24 on:** January 19, 2009, 17:44:41 PM »

I am so sorry , Stuart.

I think you made the right decision about the treatment.

JackSpratt · « **Reply #23 on:** January 19, 2009, 17:33:18 PM »

I'm so sorry, Stuart. Cherish the time you have left with Misty, it's so obvious how much you love him from your posts.

Kirst · « **Reply #22 on:** January 19, 2009, 16:15:09 PM »

Im so sorry to hear this Stuart. I think If it were me I would have taken the same descision.

Jasmine · « **Reply #21 on:** January 19, 2009, 14:19:56 PM »

Sorry to hear this Stuart, for what it's worth, think you've made the right decision about the treatment too.

Liz · « **Reply #20 on:** January 19, 2009, 13:21:39 PM »

Sorry for the bad news for you and Misty - its never what we want to hear is it

On the plus side he is still Misty and you are still his Dad so that bond hasn't changed its only the time factor that has been moved

Stuart you will love him while you can and I'm sure more treats are coming as are the cuddles - by the way vet should ask the cat re the time parameters all ours have outlived the time frame the vets gave them and we got them for that wee bit longer

Its a very hard outcome but at least you still have your boy and thats what makes this day and all the others he still has with you worth it

MrsR · « **Reply #19 on:** January 19, 2009, 13:18:59 PM »

Oh hunnie I am so sorry.

Yes cherish every moment you have together now more than ever

clarenmax · « **Reply #11 on:** January 19, 2009, 11:57:47 AM »

I'm sorry to hear this hunnie, and if he is no pain without treatment, then I think I would be taking the same course of action.

Cherish every day you have together, and I pray that you have many, many more

Sorry to hear the bad news. I think you are doing the right thing saying no to chemotherapy, esp if he will be in no pain without it.

Hugs to you both.
