People tend to underestimate the value of a vet "feely" exam which is an inexpensive way to start. Training, experience and some talent go into the vet's ability to find enlarged organs, full bladders, what's going on in lymph nodes etc.
Your cat deserves at least that which may give you some idea if there is a problem. As you move forward to a definitive diagnosis it is very expensive - maybe $300 for an ultrasound which will definitely determine if there is a mass and how far it has progessed.
Care Credit sounds great to me as you can get the money and pay it back in a year with very low or no interest.

This answer is extra for the people that say "Oh who care" or something of that nature. those are in all risk an analogous people who Bit## and whinge that the realtor makes too lots.... nicely you won't have the ability to have it the two techniques. A realtor deserve's what they make because of the fact they might spend time with a purchaser or broking and not in any respect make a dime. So once you widely used it out they are actually not making as much as you think of. And for a number of you bone heads who think of that maximum brokers get an entire 3%....uh, yeah no! they could chop up it with their broking provider and multiple brokers are a collection of two the place they chop up it returned. Then they have run costs via their commissions, gas, computers, cameras, table hire, MLS, realtor costs, self employment taxes...after a whilst the money that each and every person began isn't there anymore. anyhow, decrease back on your question.... purely tell the guy the circumstances and he would be miffed slightly, yet good day, it extremely is a gaining wisdom of adventure, he shouldn't in any respect instruct homes devoid of an unique purchaser's broking provider settlement. Congrats on the living house however.

Sorry, but you can't be certain without a trip to the vet. If you're short on cash right now most vets will agree to bill you later.
Some things to watch out for:
1. Loss of appetite
2. Refusing to drink
3. Difficulty going to the litterbox or bleeding
4. Lots of vomiting
5. Weight loss
6. Lack of energy/not wanting to play as much as normal
It could also be something like a urinary tract infection which will have all the above symptoms as well, but can be treated with medication and a change in diet.

I'm sorry, but Kitty has to be seen by a vet .... perhaps you have a clinic that will take a payment option, or check & see if you have a vet school near you ... they often times take animals for learning purposes,(the teacher is a vet and will moniter whats going on)
Good Luck

No, the cat will either need xrays or an endoscopy, along with some kind of bloodwork to find out what is going on. Sometimes tumors and cancers do not show up on xrays.
If you believe your cat has something going on, you will need to bring him/her into the vet. Sometimes ailments mimic each other.

There is no way for u to tell. even if the cat does have a tumor, you will have to go get it checked by a vet. the best option is to get a professional.

Checking for such a thing is going to cost, no matter what. The vet will start with palpitating your kitty's abdomen. And if he feels something not right, he will probably suggest X-Rays.
I suggest you get them so you will at least know what you're dealing with.
Good luck.

if you think something like that then you might have to take the cat to the vet, just find a really inexpensive one, besides all you have to do is pay for an exam. and if its not something the vet thinks should have to be removed right away you could wait and save up the money for it.

If you love your cat spend the "mula" and get him/her checked, every day you wait could mean a worse prognosis. I know this because i recently lost my ferret and my dog to cancer...

If you're not willing to spend money and take proper care of your cat, don't get another one. This one needs to go to the vet.
