Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2007Puurs for the D-Thing
Well, it came time for our aging rescue d-thing's yearly. He's doing better for a going-deaf, arthritic, near blind, on steroids-to-keep-him-from-itching dog. A week or so ago, we noticed a hard lum on his bum (right were he sits, but only on the right "cheek"). TED said, considering his age (15!!!) we should have it out and biopsied. So we did (they also removed a smaller one from his ear that's been there since we've had him), and are awaiting the results, but TED said it looked cancerous... :( I guess all we can do now is keep him comfortable until.... :(  Signaturehttp://www.firstgiving.com/nalee1131964 About my charity: Monroe County Humane Association Established in 1956, the MCHA is the longest standing animal welfare organization in Monroe County.

If these lumps are indeed malignant, I hope they still aren't a problem. Old dogs also tend to get lots of lumps and bumps that aren't malignant.

For that matter, so do older humans! Here's hoping that your d-thing's bumps were of that nature... Purrs are on the way - for him, and for you!

Sam IT'S NOT "CANCER"!!!!!! An email this afternoon from TED says: Good News The tumor we removed from Max was benign MICROSCOPIC FINDINGS: APOCRINE PAPILLARY CYSTADENOMA. PROGNOSIS: Favorable. COMMENTS: This neoplasm is benign. The mass is discrete, well-circumscribed, multinodular, encapsulated, and appeared completely excised. Surgical excision is curative. > Well, it came time for our aging rescue d-thing's yearly.
