Gatsby has a new problem: update #15.

And how is the Great Gatsby doing today? And how are you, Penny?

Gatsby says thanks to all for the hugs and positive thoughts!

And how is the Great Gatsby doing today? And how are you, Penny?

He's out of the cone and happy about that. There are only a couple of stitches, and they don't seem to be bothering him. He's got a good appetite and is his usual sweet and affectionate self.

I'm holding up. I'm trying not to dwell on what the test results may say.

The test results show that Gatsby's growth was a mast cell tumor, and it looks like the vet got all of it because the margins were clear. I'll watch him like a hawk to see whether any more of the little nasties show up, but the news could have been a whole lot worse.

Thank goodness. We'll keep the prayers going that all this is over and done!

Glad the surgeon got it all - and prayers that dear Gatsby stays clear!

I will always make the time to pray for your dear Gatsby. I'm so glad the news is good! You both have been through so much!

Hopefully this is the last time you or Gatsby has to deal with this. Glad to hear the biopsy had clean margins. I hope for a quick recovery and no further problems for your kitty.
