Our sweet, beautiful, and much beloved cat Piglet has been having a tough time recently. We had a vet visit today - exactly four weeks since his last visit - and he has lost 6 ounces. Six ounces. For a formerly 10 to 12 pound cat (he's now less than 10), that's a lot.
Originally, it looked like a dental issue, and he had two teeth removed and all of them cleaned. Then it looked like thyroid, so we've been giving him medicine twice daily for a few months. Now, the two likely candidates for diagnosis are inflammatory bowel disease or (gulp) intestinal lymphoma.
Please think good, healthy thoughts for my kitty.
