I’ve had her since I was 15/16 and I’m 30 now. Obviously I knew she wasn’t going to live forever but yesterday out of nowhere she started breathing heavily and she has fluid on the lungs. Vet has ruled out heart and kidneys so it’s either infection or cancer. Infection is treatable but cancer is not at her age.
It’s ridiculously expensive but I just want to get her through to Monday when the lab opens so they can analyse bloods, x ray or whatever, and find out what it is before I give up on her.
I’m being selfish and ridiculous but I love that cat almost as much as I love my own children. She kept me going through the breakup of my first relationship, post natal depression, and my mother dying of lung cancer. Through all that, this cat has always been there.
I am a mess. I have barely eaten or slept. It’s ridiculous and I know I shouldn’t be this ruined by it but I am. I just don’t know how I’m going to cope on Monday when they inevitably tell me something awful. I don’t have much hope.
