This time, just the good and the really bad.
It's cancer. Something awful ending in -oma. Ugh.

In other news, Mama very much likes a boy. At least we've got that going for us.

Didn't you see Failure to Launch (Sarah Jessica Parker/Matthew McCona-- however you spell his last name)? She faked putting her dog to sleep so her new man could be her knight in shining armour through a crisis. Good bonding.

But please, don't sacrifice Bugsy for the man. :)

Vet medicine has moved into the arena of humans, and you're in DC. There's gotta be an animal oncology specialist there. I'm thinking of you and Bug....

Not an offsetting situation, unfortunately. I'm so sorry, Kris.

Kris~
I am so sorry to hear this. I will keep you and kitty in my thoughts.

So sorry to read this. I had two kitties with feline leukemia, so unfortunately I know a little about this kind of thing. Anyway, sending you positive thoughts from a girl and her dog (that really likes cats (sometimes)) in southern Italy.

Shitty news is always a little less shitty when you have the distraction of a cute boy.

Blogger Maya said...

Poor stoner-Bug! Our cat-food breathed best wishes to his sucessful treatment. More about The Boy? Or is he still unbloggable?

Very sorry about Bug but did they get it all out? Those 'omas' can be a limited thing. Here's hoping and praying.

That was a heartbreaking pic.

VERY glad there's a boy!!

Your poor kitty... so sad FOR you...

Cannot wait to hear more about the guy... :)

Blogger BabsieD said...

So, so sorry Kris. This happened with my puppy (well, she was 11, but still) about 3 years ago. Did the chemo once (my in-laws did same with their cat about 5 years ago). Anyway, if you wanna discuss, drop me a line....

Blogger anno said...

I'm not sure it's fair for you to leave your readers feeling both so sad for you (and your kitty) and yet so darn encouraged (a boy? one you like?) at the same time. Whatever, sweetie, you 've got us thinking about you...
