I am sorry to hear you are going through it, we had a similar thing happen to our beloved dog we knew when it was time, she feel into a coma, and when we arrived at the vet, she looked at us one last time as if to say good bye but we knew it was for the best, she had suffered to much because we could not accept that she was dying, but her illness was not cancer, my grandmother had a dog that got tumors alot, and she lived to be a ripe old age of 14 I think...if she suffers, do not hesitate to do what you think is best. but if she still shows signs of life, take her to a different vet and get a second oppinion if you wish, chances are there is a vet who can help her, best of luck on what ever you decide is best for you and your kitty [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thank you so much for the support everyone!!! My wife and I truly appreciate it! Threads like this is why Ironworks totally rocks the free world!!!
I think all our kitty pics are on my wife'c PC, I will see if I can get some up to share. Twila is still moving around and jumping on the bed okay. She doesn't flinch when I touch the lump on her chest so I dont think she is in pain yet, though it must be uncomfortable to say the least. Our other two cats are quite jealous that Twila is getting wet food everyday and all sorts of extra attention, but at the same time I think they *know* something is wrong. Especially Newman, our ten year old who has had Twila as a sidekick since she was a kitten. He has been very loud lately, more than his usual talkative self and he sleeps in the bedroom more, which is Twila's domain. I get some comfort from the fact the vet will make a housecall when the time comes and Newman can be right there at his sister's side. Thanks again ya'll. Truly, we do not feel all alone in this challenging time. [ 08-18-2004, 01:36 AM: Message edited by: Chewbacca ]

I think the best thing is to remember al the good times you had with her, because im sure she loves you for that, and although losing her might be hard... doesnt the saying go "better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all?"

Today Twila is up moving around the house! She just came to visit me while I sat at my PC cropping and resizing this pic and has now retreated back under the bed. Seeing her up and moving around is the best B-Day present I could have asked for this year!
Here is a pic of me and Twila:
