It has been a bit over a year and wanted to follow-up. And I'm happy to say that Luna hasn't skipped a beat since recovery. She has continued to be the same sweet, resilient girl we all know and her spirit never changed. She still greets us, loves her routines, watches the animals in the yard, gets the poop zoomies, and continues to fill our home with so much comfort and love.
Focusing on her quality of life was always the priority — and seeing her now reminds us that we made the right decision. We’re incredibly grateful for her oncology team, for everyone who checked in on us, and for all the support along the way.
Currently, we take her to see the oncology team every 2-3 months for regular checkups.
Cancer picked the wrong cat.
I’m so glad that Princess Luna is doing well.
❤️
Aye, she gave that bitchy cancer no quarters. Hurrah for that Luna lass, one of the bravest to ever navigate the seven seas !
Hell yes!
Poop zoomies! We were just talking about one of our kittens who gets those lol. None of the other cats we have does.
Bless her.
The zoomies are real
My past cat got the zoomies all the time
what are poop zoomies?😭
So when they go #2, sometimes it stimulates a nerve that makes them feel very good/light and free —> zoomies
Exactly, 😄
oh thats... interesting. it sounds funny. cats are so weird lol
All hail Princess Luna on her ascension to Pirate Queen Luna 👑👑👑
👸 🐈!!
I missed her story but I'm glad she is fine and happy! Many hugs for all
Thank you!!
Nawww, she looks a lot like my first cat Semmi (short for Semolina Silkpaw). Give her some kissies and scritchies from me. I miss my Semmi. She’s been gone almost 13 years already, can’t believe it. She was 17, fingers crossed for Luna to at least get to 17 too!!! ❤️
Wow, 17! That's a great life :) Was Semmi also a Siberian?
No, she was 3/4 Persian and 1/4 Holy Birman. She had an adorable little cute button nose, not like her (full Persian) mums.
Here’s pictures of her and her brother Simba! https://www.reddit.com/r/cats/s/hCTH08EFMj

welcome to the club! im so glad luna is doing fine now ❤️|
also wth are poop zoomies lol😭
Thank you!!
Also known as Post-Poo Zoom. It is when cats go wild after dropping a lump. Theory behind it is in the wild they distance themselves from it ASAP, cos the smell attracts predators. So they run wildly & at top speed as far away as possible.
Obviously this is a bit more limited in the confines of a home & can result in kitty zooming back & forth, running in circles, climbing, etc.
In our house the start of zoomies is often a warning to get our noses covered! 😹😹
ohhh! thanks for the info!! ive never really noticed my cats do this, so ill try catching it next time haha
I never expected to become a source of info on cats doing their post-poo zoom yet here we are.
haha never expected there to be such thing either!

She looks so stoic, a true princess residing over her court. 😻

Bless her Royal Floofiness onwards and upwards for this gorgeous girl ❤️🩹

Wonderful news! You go Princess! You got this 😻😻

If you don’t mind me asking, what was the cost of the chemo? We are looking into it for our kitty and trying to weigh the pros and cons since she’s 9.
resilience is a strange kind of armor
