I hate tumors. I absolutely hate them. I guess I should start getting used to them after having seven females... But, you know, I hate them.
Lily now has a tumor, by her front left arm. It started about a month ago, it's gotten so much bigger.
And yesterday, I saw that Shadow now has a tumor! Yay! :/ It's by her groin area.
I was talking with a friend, and from experience with the vets around here ($$), I've decided that it's too expensive to remove them. *sigh*
I feel absolutely terrible about it... :'(
But I'm not going to let them suffer. Once they start losing mobility or start getting lethargic/not eating well (they're fatties) I think I'm gonna have them put down. :sad3:
But then there's the whole internal issue and everything and I don't want them to be in pain before they go or start showing symptoms like not eating. And I would hate for the tumor to grow huge but for them to be still healthy besides that.
UGH.
Sorry, I needed to share.. I'll see if I can get pics up so you guys can confirm that they're just benign mammary tumors. (Though a vet visit would be nice...)
