Vet visit


Kato saw his Oncologist last night because he continued to vomit a couple of times a day and refuse food. The Oncologist gave him a thorough exam, did bloodwork and everything came back fine! He feels this is a side effect of the chemo. They gave him fluids and an injection of Reglan, for nausea. He also has a new anti-nausea medication called Cerenia. He lost about 5 pounds and honestly doesn't look sick at all.
He's been fine since the Vet visit, so I've got my fingers crossed that this episode is over. I'm hoping that we'll skip this Sunday's chemo, but I'm not sure yet.

Thanks to all for the good wishes!

Another very cute picture! :)

I hope the anti-nausea drug is effective and Kato can keep down some food and fluids. *sending many more good thoughts*
