Stella, you and my Henry have to meet, he takes up this position every day! :))

Eli says:
I am sure that Toga is thinking: take that THING off my head!!! :)))

Eli says:
You look really comfy, Stella!

He's a very mellow cat. I'm beginning to think that's the Tux trait.

Stay strong sweet Floppy...nothing like brotherly support for a guy who has just lost half his teeth! I'm hoping for a negative result for his biopsy so you can move forward and just worry about making him feel comfy and happy. xxoo

doerscheln says:
Amazing eyes and pic !

doerscheln says:
That's so sweet how Mikesch and Storm take care of their older brother.

doerscheln says:
This facial expression is priceless!😀

He looks very mellow about it.

We're still working on figuring out what's going on here. I will fight for Floppy hard on this. Right now he's showing no distress, beyond the running eyes and drooling that's been happening when he eats that's been happening since he went on the thyroid and arthritis pain meds. He's still doing fine otherwise. And Storm and Mikesch are giving him love and support. Ambercat is still a jerk....

One of my OLD relatives in Aalen 40 plus years ago looked just like that when my parents took me over the Pond as a 14 year old kid. Scared the crap out of me. Ended up being one of the sweetest human beings I've ever met. Gone roughly 20 years now. He was my uncle on my mother;s side.

LOL

Now my sister's other cat, Toga, got the lion treatment.

doerscheln says:
LOL yes you could be right !

It's good that you are realistic Mark. My old vet used to say that a cat that becomes 15, 16 years old, had a long life, every year more is a kind of a bonus. But I always thought and I still think that Floppy has a good chance to become 20 years old because he doesn't suffer from the incurable deseases old cats often do. My five "Mitzi family" cats had renal or pancreas problems or both. Morris and Minka suffered from heart failure. I also hoped for them that they would fall asleep one evening and don't wake up again in the morning but sadly that didn't happen. To cut a long story short, when it isn't cancer, I am sure Floppy can become one of the oldest and happiest cats on Picato.

Biposy results should be next week I'd think. He's lounging on the bed right now with Mikesch, looking like absolutely great. I'm realistic on this. He's a VERY old cat. If this doesn't get him, SOMETHING will, in a year, maybe 2 or three at the best.I was just wishing that all 4 from that family didn't go from cancer. Wouldn't be surprised if the 3 brothers I adopted out at 8 weeks went like that also. I was just hoping he'd just wear out and pass away in a cat bed with Mikesch next to him . Anyway, no thyroid meds now, no gabapentin now. They're suspect, and compared to this, the things they were meant to address are pretty minuscule.

doerscheln says:
First of all I am glad that Floppy is back home again, being totally himself and eating. Of course I'm not a vet but it doesn't sound like he has cancer to me, too because Floppy is doing and looking so well for his age and it is possible that the treatment for his thyroid could have caused the problems. When do you get the biopsy results ? I send all the best wishes and hugs and kisses.

I don't think this is cancer. I think its Pharmaceutical Malpractice. Anyone in So. NH with access to share time on a Mass Spectrometer, or outside the region with interest, want to get in on a "Ground Floor Opportunity?" Spread this wide on whatever SM platform you're on...

There's something about this pic -- this is a very German expression!

Great snap!
