Thanks yes she is on the medication ,but it's doing nothing for her ,she's declining further with not drinking ,been vomiting too ,she's still alert ,but moving around very slow as getting weaker ,waiting to hear from my vet today but sadly I feel I'm going to have to make that very hard call ,sooner rather than later ,it's been so distressing ,my heart is just aching right now .
Don't worry folks my vet is one of the best ,his compassion and care for all his clients is just one in a million .

Carole, I'm so very sorry, I know what you're going though. Try to keep her hydrated and pain free. I gave Fister some appetite stimulant, too. It helped only for a while. The vet will surely let you know what's best to do. I'm glad you trust him.
You're in my thoughts and I send you big hugs and comfort - and gentle kisses to Lexie. :love:
Take care! :love:

Thank you Randi ,yes it's very hard ,I just want to do what's right for her ,I am not going to hang on to her much as I want to for my sake ,it's all about her ,her comfort ,I dont think she's in pain but some discomfort is a possibility ,well put it this way I'm sure she doesn't feel on top of the world .
I dont Want her just to linger on each day ,not eating to me that's cruel ,but I want to give her the chance to maybe eat ,I will listen to my vets advice and what Lexie and my heart tells me to do
We are doing all we can for her without causing her more distress and discomfort rest assured ,she means the world to me .

Thank you pat and everyone ,just spoke with my vet as a last chance we will give her some cerenia tabs and losec,she's had an Injection of cerenia before .
He told me cats can go weeks without eating food ,so I'm not going to let that happen,if this doesn't work I will have to make that call that I really don't want to do .

carole ~ You and Lexie are in our prayers.
Sometimes heating the food makes it stinkier and more appetizing. It worked every now and then for Cammie Cat.

Thank you Lisa, yes I heat her food ,I think Lexie is beyond help but I'm not giving up ,give these meds a chance to Work and you never know ,fingers crossed .

Update
It's with a heavy heart and much sadness that I had to make the decision to let Lexie go to the rainbow bridge today .
Despite new meds Lexie was declining and still not eating .
It was a hard call to make but it was the kindest thing to do .
I will miss her so much 15 years is a long time ,I can't imagine not seeing her around anymore .
Feeling very sad ,but glad my darling girl is no longer suffering and at peace .
-
Bless your heart, so sorry for your loss. No matter what, such a hard decision and I know you made the right choice. I know because you loved Lexie with your whole heart. You are the best and I am certain that your darling Lexie will rest in peace forever.

Thank you for your kind words ,yes she will leave a big void in my life .

I am so very sorry, Carole. Deepest sympathy to you and all your family. Lexie had a long, beautiful life with you, full of love and warmth and companionship and good food. Now she is no longer suffering. She is healthy and whole again at the Rainbow Bridge, with many other dear friends, watching over you and sending down love. Love is eternal, and you and she are together always. She will welcome you Home again, One Fine Day...
Big hugs to you, Carole, and all your family. May your precious memories and keepsakes help to bring you comfort.

Fly free Lexie. I'm glad you're free of your tired body and have the energy of a kitten again.
Please stop by and visit your Mom once in awhile. She misses you so.

I am so sorry about Lexie. You did everything you possibly could for her, and in the long run you did the best thing for her. Even though it was the most difficult decision.

Carole, I am so sorry to hear the heartbreaking news about Lexie.
You truly did everything possible for her and you were brave and put her needs before your own wants.
If love could have saved her she would have lived forever. :love:
Play healthy and free at the Bridge, sweet Lexie, healthy and whole again. :love::love:
