My cat has a tumor in front of his larynx. It’s big and it’s getting harder for him to swallow. We found out too late that he had cancer. The vet is afraid to take a biopsy due to making the tumor angry and causing it to grow faster. I need to know if there is anything at this late stage to shrink the tumor so he will stop suffering. I may have to put him down soon. He is gulping when he swallows. I just found out on Thursday that he had a tumor and it’s getting harder for him to swallow. He may have a collapsed lung and pneumonia due to trying to breath harder. The vet is concerned that intubating him will cause cancer cells to break off and go down the throat.
Please help. He is almost 11 pounds and weighed 17 pounds on Thursday. He lost a pound yesterday when I went to get him an iv. He still wants to eat, especially cat treats.
thank you
Kim
