Tigger's Status Update
Tigger enjoying the sun streaming in from the south-facing window in the living room, showing off her magnificent tummy.
We talked with the vet today about what to do with Tigger's lump between her breasts (apparently it not on a breast). We decided to bring her in to the vet on the 2nd of November (when we were going to bring in cats for kidney treatments anyway) and have the vet look her over again to see if it changed size. Then, we'll have an idea as to growth rate and urgency of surgery (or not). Tigger seems totally unaware of why people keep on poking her in sensitive spots... She's acting normally and has a good, healthy appetite.
[May 2020: Unfortunately, Tigger's lump grew into a large tumor but also spread out throughout her body, most ominously to her lungs. This eventually led to her death in the middle of April 2020 after suffering from an acute phase of the cancer for about a three weeks. She was in no pain except for the last minute or two of her life when she suffered a heart attack due to her lungs not delivering enough oxygen to her heart. We buried her next to Argent (who died a month earlier, essentially due to old age) in our garden.]
