The last year has been really rough on Mr Avery, his weight is like a roller coaster up and down. We have been through a battery of test, blood, urine you name it. The only thing we found was he has a slight heart murmur.
I took Avery in to the Vet today for an ultra sound (for his heart) and they found something on his kidney. I guess when the Vet saw his heart was okay she decided to check some other areas. The ultra sound only showed some sort of a shadow of something at the top. When she showed it to me it appears the top of the kidney either has scar tissue or a tumor.
We did more blood work today and she is going to refer us to a specialist at GVS (Georgia Vetrinary Specialist). She said we could do a biopsy of the kidney but there are a lot of things I need to consider before I go to those steps.
Avery is not in pain, he is seems happy and fine but he is an old cat. I want to wait for the blood work tomorrow and see what that says. I am not sure I want to put him through surgery again. So many questions and decisions I have to make...my brain is racing.
If you can say a small prayer for Avery it would be appreciated. I just want the strength to make the right choices and allow Avery to live his life pain free. |
I went through this with my mom's cat GiGi last Year, and my 2 years back....they are so special...will say prayers for your baby....
