Showing Signs of Improvement

I didn't think it was possible but Weasel is showing signs of improvement.  For 4 days now he's had amazing energy and is back to how he was prior to the cancer developing.  He doesn't sit in a little ball, crouched up in pain with this tail twitching anymore.  His tail still twitches almost non-stop every day but he's alert, energetic, has a great appetite and looks good.  His eyes are a bright green and haven't turned yellow; however there are small dark orange veins in them around the edges.  This could have always been there though.  I wasn't paying attention previously.

Another good sign is that the skin in his ears are still a healthy pink so I believe he remains jaundice free.

We've been applying the Naltrexone every night in his ears and I believe that's the source of this unusual improvement.  He still eats a treat each day that consists of Essiac Tea, Amino B-Plex, Life Gold and Omega-3.  In his regular meals he receives Schuessler tissue salts - #10 (Natrum Phos 6x) and #11 (Natrum Sulph 6x) as well as the drops that the vet provided.

We've had to give up on providing the Lypo-spheric Vitamin C as he became miserable with it on his fur and refused to groom.  It caused a few dreadlocks in his long fur as well.  I'm really disappointed about this as Vitamin C is a powerful agent against cancer.

Weasel has also discovered that if he chews persistently, he will break through any hidden capsules so no matter how tasty the treat, he seems to inevitably discover the Yunnan Baiyao.  We've had to give up on this as well but it may not be an issue as he doesn't appear to be in pain.  This was almost serving as a natural pain killer.  I'm sure there were other unseen benefits as well.

I'm not sure if anyone reading this post, who is facing a similar ordeal, may have noticed this on their kitty but Weasel has removed all of the fur on his stomach.  I believe it was fragile to begin with but his licking ensures that it can't return.  He grooms fastidiously to the point where he's created wounds around his hind legs - where they meet the stomach.  My impression was that he was attempting to remove the tumor; however, in researching this topic it seems to be a specific disorder that one vet described on a site I came across.  I wish I had kept a link to it as it may be useful for others.  At the bottom of the page a lady remarked that all she did was change the litter and her cat stopped licking, so it turned out to be an allergy.  In the event that this is the same issue with Weasel we purchased a dust free newspaper based litter and are crossing our fingers that that does the trick.  I suspect he's irritated by the tumor though as the type of fur that was growing there wasn't thick, likely affected by his condition.

As for treating the small wounds that he's creating.  The holistic vet recommended a product called Cothivet.  It's an all-natural wound spray that aids in the formation of connective tissue on healing wounds and chronic sores.  I was able to save some money and purchased it from the UK for $20 CDN (which includes shipping).  The only downside is the length of time it takes to arrive here.
