We have her booked to see the vet tomorrow (earliest appointment).
My beloved girl has been having episodes of vomiting and diahorrea since December. At this time blood test looked ok. A little weight lost but she perked up after ABs and pain relief.
She then had an episode of quite awful diarrhea - vet suggested nil by mouth and slow intro of bland food. She perked up again.
During this she was mostly her usual chatty self, very affectionate (this cat falls over herself to offer kisses and purrs at any opportunity). She never really lost her appetite and began eating beautifully again.
This last week she has had an episode of bloody diarrhea as well as vomiting and is now eating very little. She is finding hidey holes and is clearly not herself. She has gone from nicely padded to feeling very bony.
At her age, what can be done? I have an awful feeling this may be the beginning of the end for CEOcat and I honestly can't bare to even think about it
No real reason for posting (perhaps hoping for stories of miracle recoveries of older cats).
This moggy is my special friend.

It's not good at all, she's lost loads of weight and the bloods show anemia with red blood cells not regenerating, so suspected internal bleeding, cancer/tumour. It's so very sad.
