ugh...sorry to be an AW but Mickey is back to being sick and its really concerning me. He's lost so much weight i can feel his entire spine when i pet him; and he's not drinking any water which is sooo dangerous. The vet's new theory is that he has a tumor which wouldn't have shown up in the blood work. We're taking him in today at lunch to learn how to inject fluids under his skin....but my heart knows this isnt a cure, just a way to prolong his life
I feel so helpless, but given his age both Andrea and the vet dont want to do many tests, xrays, ect since we won't really be able to do anything even if we did find out what was wrong (and that would be $$$ for an 18 yo cat). but i also feel super guilty about not doing everything in our power. ugh, this sucks.

I feel so bad for you and Andrea and especially Mickey. He must really, really love you both so much. Try to not feel guilty-- whatever you do (or decide to not do) will be the right thing for everyone, and I am sure he is already grateful for all the love you have given him over the years.
