    Oscar at the vet this morning - good update #20

    A few months ago Oscar developed a wart-like growth under his chin. I took him to my vet; her gut feeling was that it was nothing.

    Oscar grew two more of them. Long story short, he is getting the general anesthetic and having all 3 removed, along with a small tag found under his armpit. I added the basic blood panel; it's been almost two years since his geriatric one.

    We'll get the results next Tuesday or Wednesday. Hopefully they are all benign.

    We could have gone with sedation, freezing and removing one - but might have had to do the general and remove them all in the future. I figure this is the least expensive and best way to go.

    I'll have my dozy boy home after 3 pm. Would appreciate good thoughts and prayers. Thanks!
