I just wanted to give an update on Ayla since many are asking how she is doing. Unfortunately not so well.
Her face has gotten so swollen that it has made it difficult for her to eat. It really is amazing how much the tumor has grown in just two months. Also, I don't know if it's that she's having trouble eating or the cancer, but she has also lost a lot of weight. I'm going to bring her to the vet later this week to have her checked out and see if there is anything we can do to help the swelling.
If not...well...I'm starting to look at her quality of life. Right now, she is spending 99% of her time in the closet with only occasional outings to the food dish and the litter. Her spunky attitude does come out around feeding time but this morning it was painful to watch her eat.
I will keep you all updated on her condition as soon as I know more.

Damn...
Don't anyone see, but please give Ayla some secret head skritches from me. And tuna water. Maybe tuna water will be easy and she'll like it and you can tell her its from Max.
I hope they can do something, I reall hope they can.
That's very sad to hear that Ayla isn't doing so well. Me and my cats send purrs xx
I like Max's idea of Tuna Water...she might like that.
My mom says she understands how hard it is to decide about quality of life issues. Purrs, Head Butts and Warm thoughts to the Mom and to you Ayla.
:-(
Check with your vet ASAP. There are drugs that can improve her quality of life for a while.
She will let you know when she is ready to go.

Purrrrrs for Ayla. We are keeping her in our purrrayers. Thank you for the update. So sorry you are having a hard time eating!
Your FL furiends,
Ayla, you MUST improve. Because I need you. You are my inspiration in dealing with that stoopid cowcat. You need to deal with the Brats and especially that Annoying One before they get any bright ideas.
As for your family, you've appreciated the best possible life and you know it.
