Jill, you are one cute slurpin' kitty! I guess dogs slobber and kitties slurp!
No peeing? Apparently eating? All tests looking good? (minus the few red blood cells).......sure seems like things could be pointing to luekeran, maybe?
Erica, could you try really "smushing" the chunks in the Fancy Feast, shredding them...whatever...so Jill will slurp up the "meat" along with the "gravy"?
Your vet is a Saint
Amd YAAAAAY! Got to see avideo, albeit very short, of the world's most famous kitty!
Love,
Salt and Hapoy Hannah
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
SALT...i tried that, she slurped around the shredded pieces, she's no dummy!
PS - did you notice brudda chewing on AIR in the background of the video?
Jill is a 9-year-old tuxedo kitty. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in June 2012 on her toe in her right hind leg. Her leg was amputated on 12/12/12 and she completed four rounds of chemo (2 of Carbo, 2 of Doxy) in April 2013.

OK, it is now confirmed that Jilly is eating. She has had THREE dinners tonight and I've seen it with my own eyes. Just jumped off the couch and gone to her food bowl on her own three separate times. So lets hope that shes eating more now than she had been and her weight goes up on Sunday......PLEASE

Haph Hannah wanted to check in on Jill tonight. It's just impossible for her to wrap her big head arond the fact that anyone could feel like not eating and loose weight! She's been baking lots of kitty cakes and kitty macaroni and cheese to pack up and send to Jill......well....except she has to keep baking a lot....everytime she makes a kitty cake, she eats it. She eats all the cheese out of the macaroni too
She's such a well intentiined dog....she just needs help with her food addiction. I'm going to enroll ner in Over Eaters Anonymous soon. Well, so mucn forthe "anonymous" part.
Oh yeah, I love that they are both nine years old this month! I think that makes them sisters, right! The resemblance is uncatty.....(get it? uncanny.....uncatty!¡)
We need a icture over here!! Picture please!

Pics of Jill are always a great way to start my day!
Maybe the puke was from overeating???? Hope so!

Great pics! Couldn't get my reply button to work last night!
Jill defines "one cool cat" and kows how to relax! She always looks so comfy, makes you wanna' go over and snuggle withnher.
Those paws are the best paws in the land of kitties! She realy knows how to work 'em!
IF Jill ouked (and it was probably Brudda' framing her) it's like Jerry said, she's just been trying to eat too much too fast...plus eating all that canned junk food initially probavly krritated her little kitty tummy!
Happy Hannah says she'll be glad to hel you clean it up. She hates to see a good meal go to waste
Lotta love...and tha ks for the pics!

I love jill!!!
Cats do puke and if she suddenly got hungry and was trying to make up for all the food she hadn't eaten, puking wouldn't be that surprising. I have a really good feeling about this. I bet when she gets weighed on Sunday the weight will be up.
