We have been to the vet with my 11 year old boy. They took some blood and we need to call back on Mon. to see if he qualifies for surgery. However, I am apprehensive about this surgery because our cat is behaving absolutely normally and I don't want to mess up a good thing. He has had a cyst (?) below his ear for the last 2 years. It would fill with fluid and regress back to a solid lump off and on. There is no other lump anywhere else on his body. He is eating, playing, sleeping, and is a super affectionate kitty. He is an indoor cat.
I was wondering if lancing would be an option but our vet says they would feel better removing it. He will also get his tartar taken care of as he will be on anesthesia anyway. I was just wondering if someone can guess if this is a serious and probable cancer or just a benign cyst.
And any idea on how to help his tartar? It is really hard to get back to his teeth --he won't let me touch them.
