Struggling with the in's and out's.


Penny is still struggling with getting enough to eat. I've been trying to feed her 4x per day because she doesn't eat very much in any one sitting, and doesn't seem to like eating the dry food that's left out for her. She's also had some difficulty with constipation these past few days. The poor cat went and sat in her litterbox 3 times that I noticed on Sunday, before she was finally successful and got to bury something.

Current weight: 6.4 lbs.

What if...

I haven't posted in a long time, because everything has been holding steady. Aside from coughing up some yellow liquid this morning, Penny seems to still be happy and actually has been quite energetic since I started feeding her kitten food.

I do wonder whether I'm feeding her or her tumor though. Kitten food is higher in calories and I hoped that would help her gain weight back, but nope...she's still skinny. I hope that the extra calcium in the food is not fueling the tumor growth.

Here's a little photo experiment I tried to see how the tumor has affected her face:

Current weight fluctuates between 6.6 to 7.0 lbs.
