Thankful Thursday

Dr. Sandy, the house call vet, and her assistant just left, and after doing my best to terrorize them with my gigantic man eating tiger impression for an hour, it's good news so far.


RAWR VET!!

I have two lumps on my ribs that were scaring Mom, but Dr. Sandy's pretty sure they're just fatty lipomas. We're not going to aspirate or biopsy, because it would cause even more stress for me and it's highly unlikely they're malignant.

Even if they were, at almost 18, I wouldn't want to deal with the drama and trauma of operations or chemo or even going to the vet anyway. I don't even want to go to vet's office or see a vet at home. I'm getting a little Howard Hughes-y as I get older.



ARE YOU NOT TERRIFIED!? RAWR!!

The vets say that my feistiness is good, and it's what's kept me alive this long. 
; )


Anyway, still need to hear back about my blood work, etc. Keeping tabs on my thyroid count and such, but generally a good visit!  Thank Bast!  =^..^=

I'm glad that your visit from the vet wasn't TOO eventful, Cokie! Paws crossed that your bloodwork looks good so that you don't have to deal with anymore vets for a while!
