[Whisk_Luva]

When I read the title I was hoping and praying it wouldnt be your Tia, Zara! Such a sweet girl!

Whatever you decide I am behind you Zara as I know you will do the best for Tia,

Give Tia loads of hugs from me please!

Thank you everyone.

And a big thanks to Michelle, too, I'm glad that you were straight with me as, you well know, I'm not a person that likes to beat about the bush. I'm so sorry about Sweetpea. That's my main dilemma really, wondering whether I can cope with evading the inevitable for as long as possible.

Donna, I see what you're saying about risking the op. I suppose we'll just have to see what the vet recommends and take it from there.

Oh, and thanks for the link to the site, Holly, it's been helpful to me. Again, I'll see what the vet says tomorrow before I take any action.

She's booked in for a vet appointment at 4:40pm (GMT) tomorrow. I'll be ringing at about 5ish from my trip to hear how things went and what the situation is. Fingers crossed, I guess.

Aww, Zara..I'm sorry to hear this news. I will be praying that Tia is OK.

Hey Zara -- so very very sorry to hear about Tia. When we were still had rats (about 15 years ago), our favourite boy Ratfink got a tumour as well, and the story is pretty well the same as kittycats_delight. I'm hopng for the best for Tia, and keeping my fingers crossed for you guys. *hugs* _A_

I'm really at a loss for words, Zara .

I hope that the outcome for Tia is well, but only you truly know what's best for her.

Sending you lots of good vibes and major (((HUGS)))!

Zara, I'm so sorry you and Tia are going through this right now. I saw the thread title and immediately hoped it wasn't your girl. I can't offer much in the way of advice, but I'm sending some good vibes your way. I hope everything works out as well as it can.

I had a mouse (Shelley) who developed a tumor. I noticed it the day we moved into our new house... it started so tiny but it grew fast. The vet I took her to agreed that she wasn't in any pain, but when she started to show signs of being in pain it would be time to have her put to sleep. She was such a sweet girl. She ended up passing on her own, before she ever showed any signs of being in pain.

Good luck with Tia. I hope and pray she remains pain free and happy for a long time.

Oh Zara. I don't even know what to say. ***HUGS*** and good vibes for both you and little Tia Maria.
