I went through this exact thing with my kitty about 3 years ago. She got so sick and after they had her on IV fluids, the fluids surrounded her heart so we had to put her on small doses of a diuretic to take the fluid off her heart without damaging her kidneys anymore than they were. It was touch and go for awhile but, she pulled through and enjoyed 2 more months of life. The only thing I could get her to eat while she was so sick was baby food. Make sure if you do feed Whitey baby food that you check the ingredients. Do not feed any that contain onion or garlic.
She let us know when it was time to make that hard decision. I am sure when the time comes, Whitey will let you know as well. Enjoy the time you have now.
