Our vet told us that this was quite rare, and after reading up on it he estimated her life expectancy to approx. Before the surgery she was active and gave no sign of discomfort. Since the surgery she seems to be uncomfortable and sleeps on her side more often than before, and her energy has been zapped. Thank you for any advice. According to the literature you vets estimate of about a year is the average length of survival.
Adenocarcinomas are highly metastatic and often move to the lymph nodes, kidney, spleen, brain.
The signs she is showing now may indicate metastisis, or hopefully that she was weak and is still recovering from surgery. The best thing you can do for your cat is good supportive care. If he is interested and needs dosages have him E-mail me. Give her losts of love and keep her out of situations where she contacts other animals that could give her colds, viruses etc. The more stable her environment, the better.
