Tough news

Well I just got back from the vet specialist and it's not good news y'all. I'm home with steroids but I was diagnosed with Large Cell Lymphoma in my stomach and GI tract. Unfortunately there's just not a heck of a lot they can offer me. Chemotherapy doesn't do the trick with cats with Lymphoma. So I pretty much get whatever I want -- I had some milk earlier and maybe I'll get Chick-fil-A later. If I'll eat it then it's mine. But my weight was down again from last week's vet visit and as much as it makes them sad Mom and Dad won't let me waste away and suffer either. Hopefully the steroids will keep me going for a while but we just have to see. 

My purr is still strong, I'm still the lover that earned me my name, and I'm going to live every moment I have. Please continue to pray and purr for me (and especially for my Mom -- she having a really hard time). Thank you, my friends.

Aw, Huggy, we do not like this news at all. And our mom knows exactly how your mom feels. We know that you will live your best as long as you can but we also know how sad your mom and dad are right now. You've got their love, and ours too. ❤️
