Ok, so I tried all day to get into see a vet, ANY vet. Even to get blood drawn for my cat (just a vet tech) And every vet place said they didn't have any availability for three weeks.

The problem is that my cat seems to be getting worse and worse... and I can't be waiting 3 weeks for this test and that test. Honestly I am seriously considering not getting a pet again. Because I have found the vets to be absolutely uncooperative and almost passive aggressive the entire time with my cat. They don't want me to put him down but they also don't' want to help him.

And of course the only dates they had available were dates where I was busy. Of course.

So I got frustrated and called the at home "Lap of Love". At this point I just called them and they called me right back but I was on the phone with someone else. I have to find the strength to make the appointment. I want to do it next week.

What has happened is that my cat has been throwing up for 6 months about every 72 hours. But this week he did it most every day. And he is also starting to have diarrhea. This of course are symptoms of lymphoma. And I think that is what it is. My vet says the only way to be sure is to get a biopsy -- which would be invasive for my cat and very expensive. And even then it might not 100% tell us definitively.

I have returned to work and I just don't want to be trapped at work, and I am trapped, for 12 hours while my cat is sick at home.

My cat looks miserable every day when he isn't sleeping and he isn't really doing that much anymore.

I just don't see this getting any better and I even agreed with my vet that we would follow a plan. I was going to see if my cat's asthma was causing it... if not we would try a steroid pill, if not we would get blood tests. But I decided to go for the blood tests this week.. silly me to find out I didn't have that option for thee more weeks.

I have to do this.. I have to do this.
