Default Update on Tiger

I've just come home from Tigers appointment with the vet. He hasn't
lost much fluid yet, but the vet could feel everything a bit more, and
at the moment is seems like he has a tumor in or next to his bowels,
or something to do with leukemia (I doubt the leukemia, as his
bloodwork was good). He got another injection and pills for the next
days to try to get rid of more fluid and has to be back at the vet
Monday night to see what the vet can feel then. He's already very
skinny, but I never noticed it because the rest was swelling up :-(
The vet was honest and told me what I had already expected to hear,
that it's no or little use to operate. And I don't want to ruin the
little bit that's left of his life with making him sick from an
operation, so all I'd like to ask from people here is that they send
purrs to make him feel as well as possible under the circumstances.

I am so sorry to hear this. Tiger is in my thoughts as are you.
