    The cancer returned to our cat & he died today with too much fluid on his lungs. He fought hard, but just could not take it anymore. I may have to have three more! I am not sure we are going to take on any more animals now though, as it seems for about the last 20-25 years we have lost most all of them to cancer, that I used to rarely see in animals other than chickens & one bull & now we see it all the time & on ours as well.

      kyle Thank you, we really appreciate it. We rescued him as a stray, a Ginger Cat about five years or so ago. He had to have his leg cut off about two years ago, but still stayed tough as ever & active, until just the past few days. Then it came back with a lot of fluid in his lungs this morning, early. It was weird because he came running to me & stood up on his hind legs & wanted me to pet him & scratch his chin immediately when he was apparently dropped off about five years ago or so. Really strange, because cats just typically do not do that to me. For instance, someone just dropped another stray & he runs from me, even when I try. Gato came a running to me & he was a real champ to with rats, mice, squirrels, & unfortunately Chipmunks. Yes, we are seeing way to much of that stuff. I try to get some answers out of the current vets, but not sure I really ever get the whole, straight story. I think they are afraid to say anything for certain.

                    calldoctoday sorry to hear about your cat. Animals have a way of becoming a special part of the family. The cancer in animals does seem to be more prevalent than in the past. Hang in there and remember those good times.

                            Surg Julius is great! My favorite is Haze or very Haze. I actually don’t think I’ve ever had a bad beer from treehouse. I’m in southern New Hampshire and it’s still hard for me to get the beer. luckily they just bought a country club half hour south of me so It should get much easier.

                                  glen Thank you, we really appreciate that. Yes, they can really be amazing & surprise you at times. I know we had one little good dog for nearly 20 years & she just kept on ticking, through one thing after the other & would never give up, until something happened at the very end that did her in. She was amazing. Even Gato amazed us by surviving his leg amputation & still being so active. My wife said they warned us when they did the surgery (I was probably working) that he might not last six months before the cancer returned, yet he kept on for over 2 years until this lung fluid in this hot humid weather got him. They can be very resilient & I have known a number of people that were the same. I know my Mom was told she had six months & then she survived over 10 more years, happily & not on a bunch of medications, even thinking she had whipped it, before it returned & they gave her 30 days & she was gone in two weeks. You just never know. Hang in there with little Mitzi.

                                        glen Thank you, we really appreciate that. Yes, they can really be amazing & surprise you at times. I know we had one little good dog for nearly 20 years & she just kept on ticking, through one thing after the other & would never give up, until something happened at the very end that did her in. She was amazing. Even Gato amazed us by surviving his leg amputation & still being so active. My wife said they warned us when they did the surgery (I was probably working) that he might not last six months before the cancer returned, yet he kept on for over 2 years until this lung fluid in this hot humid weather got him. They can be very resilient & I have known a number of people that were the same. I know my Mom was told she had six months & then she survived over 10 more years, happily & not on a bunch of medications, even thinking she had whipped it, before it returned & they gave her 30 days & she was gone in two weeks. You just never know. Hang in there with little Mitzi.
