My cat was just diagnosed with lymphoma. She has fluid around her spleen, kindeys and a node in her liver. The vet said that she could send me to see a specialist but I’m wonder if she is just too old for this? She also has blood clots due to Saddle Thrombosis that recently happened in October.

My cat was diagnosed and treated for biliary a year ago, treatment included use of cortisone and a drug called Primaquinine, today another vet diagnosed him with Lymphoma, i would like to know if the lymphoma could have been caused by the biliary

My 10 year old cat Izzy has large cell Lymphoma, a lump was found in her abdomen at a routine vaccination appointment and Lymphoma diagnosed on needle biopsy on July 2nd this year. Its isolated to the one lymph gland She was very well at the time. Chemo started straight away with Vincristine and high dose steroids and three weeks later she had her first Lumostine dose. Two weeks after that the lump was no longer palpable, so the Vinicristine was stopped and steroids reduced. However; the Lumostine has knocked her immune system out after each dose, so after admission for IV fluids and antibiotics she’s recovered and we are now looking at tweaking her dose of Lumistine to prevent such a negative effect on her immune system. She has remained very well most of the time with only a couple of very short periods when she’s been slightly quieter. Its early days but the lump hasn’t returned and if you didn’t know her diagnosis you wouldn’t know she has cancer

My cat has a mass on his colon which the vet believes is lymphoma. The vet didn’t feel the mass at his visit 6 weeks ago, so it’s grown quickly. He is 17 years old, and in good health otherwise. He has lost weight, and stopped eating and moving his bowels. The vet gave him a steroid injection, and he is eating and going to the potty again. The vet said cats usually live a few months with this condition. Unfortunately, we have a vacation planned in a few weeks and I’m miserable about going away knowing how sick he is.

Our sweet 17 and 1/2 year old kitty Phidget has been losing weight and has had "pink urine" for a few weeks. At first I noticed the weight loss, and even though its hard to see urine color in the sandbox, when a puddle formed I blotted it with paper and it was pink. So I went to out vet with a collected urine sample (not hard to do with a small snack size plastic baggie). He did some blood work to rule out thyroid issues, noted she was anemic, did an ultrasound (no visible tumors in her belly or kidneys), and gave her a long acting antibiotic shot. She also got 100 cc of saline subcutaneously in office. No change in the rose colored urine for 6 days, then for 24 hours, she had clear yellow urine! Relief. Until the rose tint cam back a day later. Back to vet, who is now trying to rule out lymphoma. Phidget seems happy, purrs, has a good appetite and except for arthritis, appears non-plussed about this problem. Physically, she has lost so much weight, but is still quite content. My biggest concern is her happiness and being comfortable. Any thoughts, MD's or friends with experiences w older cats?
