Oh Kitten, so sorry to hear Sadie and you are dealing with this. This will be a tough time for you both and we will be here for support, rest assured we have all been in similar situations and if nothing else we understand the sadness and are good at listening. So please share your feelings with us, it is good to let go.

Sadie is very lucky to have her mom right by her side. She will have good days and bad days but her spirit will always soar for having you there with her loving her.
When My kit has a stomach soar I found placing a no stick pad directly over the sore and then using a sprain stretch wrap around her entire middle secured with a safety pin. Seemed like everything else just kept sliding off. Now you can use a baby t shirt for her arms to go through and then secure it with the wrap or place the wrap under her arms crisscrossed over to meet at the stomach....Yea, I know ..you have NO idea what I am talking about. Just do the best you can to secure it so walking won't be encumbered and it will not slide off.
Whatever it takes to keep Sadie happy until she lets you know she is ready to leave this world with you by her side.

Sharing in your sadness--Sadie is now one of ours and we will be by your side until that day comes.
Sincerely--love to Sadie,
CML

I'm so sorry to hear of Sadies cancer, this is so sad...for you and for her, I do hope she is on something for pain, cats hide pain very well but believe me it's there.
Perhaps you could make her a sort of Tshirt from a large sock? If she wouldn't fuss with it overly much, would keep her from licking it, but some pain meds would also help with that I would think
Keep us updated and we'll try and help if we can, sending some prayers and some (( hugs))
