    So sorry to hear this, OBL. As you know, we lost our dear old cat to cancer in June & there were so many tears. I very much hope the tumour is benign. If it isn't, I find the only way through the sadness is to remember the lovely life he had with us & that he had everything he needed.
    Am sending positive vibes.

  • So sorry to read this. It will be a long week, filled with love. If it is the worst news remember that having your emergency funds and buffer will ensure at least any decisions will be eased in that respect. Take care ❤️

    Hopefully it is,the vet said he couldn't see anything in her lungs or on her liver,if it's a malignant tumour it's blood based cancer so could be anywhere, she as bloods last week and they showed low platelets but they think that was because it's been bleeding, we will just have to wait and see x
