Lily's lump

[Catty1]

Cole has a grade 3 heart murmur and has gone through one dental surgery a few years ago and having his spleen removed last year. He did just fine.

If the lump is just under the skin it won't be a big surgery. You'll have your kitty back safe and sound before you know it.

mon, I'm sorry that Lily has to undergo surgery. I'm glad though that you like the new vet, trust is so important.
Did they give you any indication what kind of growth (benign vs malignant) Lily has?
Either way, I wish you and Lily the best of luck with the procedure!
PS, it's not that weird that one vet heard a heart murmur, and the other one didn't. Miss Kitty's emergency vet heard one, but her regular vet didn't, and I trust her more.

Well, that sounds promising. This new vet seems an improvement on the old! We are sending along more good wishes and prayers that the surgery goes well and Lily recovers and heals nicely with good results.

You all are so supportive and kind, it means so much. How it went was, my husband Shawn said he wants it out no matter what, the vet said okay and given how fast it grew we need to nip it in the bud. SHawn does not want to know if it is malignant or not once it's out. He just wants to move on in oblivion, like nothing happened. While I can understand that, in a way, not sure it's the best plan.... We'll just let it unfold, he's a little testy when it comes to Lilybell. Aren't we all

Sounds like a plan, and for not wanting to know what it is: Everybody has their own threshold, and we should accept that. We have clients who have the same mindset, It certainly doesn't mean that that they don't love their pets!
Keeping my fingers crossed that Lily will do well tomorrow.

Thanks, Lily can't eat after an hr. and a half until she gets home tommorrow evening. she is going to freak out, no doubt about it, the only thing she enjoys more than eating is, well.... taking a right Royal round out of her big sister. She wakes me at 5 a.m. For breakfast every day, not really sure what I am gonna tell her . I wonder if they would call me as soon as it's over, otherwise I will probably phone non-stop until it's done. It should be in the morning but if there are any emergencies they will certainly take precedence. I will ask, I don't see why that would be a problem? I am glad it's being done, it is growing so fast.

We are sending along all our prayers and good wishes and warm healing energies that everything goes well with Lily's surgery and she heals well and the results are promising.

I'm glad it's benign. I thought your husband didn't want to know what it was.

[mon]

He didn't. 😂🤣 🤷🏾‍♀️

I'm glad Lily's lump was benign

[mon]

Thank you sweetheart, me too. I think my husband was afraid it would be a malignancy and was afraid to know. I was too but I wanted to know. The vet just simply added it up and told us, like it or not. What a freakin relief. 😺 Excellent vet 😎

That's good to know,thanks. Lily was so stressed out that I thought it was simply fear and stress that made her heart sound strange.

Oh yes, Shawn will drop her off in the a.m. And pick her up after work. About 11 or 12 hrs. And she'll be back home safe and sound if all goes well. It is in a spot where she cannot lick at the stitches, which is a blessing indeed. It is just under the skin, not attached to anything so it should be a very simple procedure he says, I'm sure it will hurt afterwards though. Poor Lily, I'm scared but all your support helps so much. Thank you!!

Will be praying!
