Good luck with her.

I’m pretty confident she’ll be just fine.

Lumps on dogs are rarely anything while lumps on cats usually are something.

Izzy had another lipoma that grew on the flap of skin in front of her hind leg.

It grew like crazy, having absolutely nothing to constrain it.

She looked weird but was healthy until Rimadyl given her for a back injury took her out...:(

You’re right about cats and tumors. I always “pet” my cats, at least once a week, feeling them all over for tumors. I’ve only found one so far, but my finding it saved my cat’s life, for it was a malignant breast tumor.

The doctor was stunned that I had found it in time because normally he didn’t see cats with tumors until it was too late to save them. He removed it, and she lived another six years until she was 19-1/2.

The little 12-week-old kitten that was put out by neighbors to fend for herself because she had an eye infection turned out to be my Tiger. She always appreciated being rescued from a short, brutal life. Her birthday (arbitrarily chosen), July 26, is coming up. I’ll never forget her.

Rimadyl? I’ve used buffered aspirin before, until that particular dog (same collie) improved with the perna mussel pills enough to come off it. The aspirin did trigger occasional tummie upset but the arthritis relief looked worth it. Shame about Izzy.

So when’s the psychic to come do his thing? All the best in your search until that rascally snake is found.
