I don't like the look of it...
Just found out today that our 14 year old Bengal has lymphoma. He's not had much of an appetite for the past week or so and we've been giving him subcutaneous fluids and just got some prednisone to try to help the inflammation and to stimulate his appetite. I don't know what to expect or do, I know his time is limited but I don't know if we should try the steroids and see if it helps or if we just need to say our goodbyes and not prolong his discomfort.

We put our cat to sleep today. The steroids weren't helping all that much and he just didn't want to eat much of anything anymore. All he did was lay in the sunshine and sleep, and last night he started vomiting bile and just seemed like he was done. We took him outside today and gave him catnip and just let him lay in the grass one more time. I buried him at my parents place close to where my first childhood dog was buried. I think it was the first time my wife actually saw me cry, and I was trying to hold it together for her sake.

Farewell Caesar, you were a great cat and a Bengal through and through.
