If you want to try to convince her on the Elspar, you should point out that it works only on lymphoma and does not have other side effects, so should not hurt him if he does not have lymphoma (which is unlikely) and if it does help it will be a clear indication that he does indeed have lymph

Hey, If you do decide to take your cat's temp, I'd advise waiting until they are relaxed and on their side (sometime Satch doesn't even stop purring if I can get it right - but then he's a weirdo), but most importantly, well lubricate the tip and stem of the thermometer.  I've used butter in a pin
