My friend has an 11 year old tabby cat with white markings on her nose and chest. She is an indoor-outdoor cat, and has been diagnosed with cancer in her nose. We are both very upset with this news!
The vet has strongly recommended to have the cancer (and nose) removed.
She is a very healthy cat otherwise and still acts young!
The vet said she would have about a year or so left without surgery or she may even live a long time....(she has no pain now) With surgery she has a very good chance of recovery but, of course there is that risk with her age and the chance that he wont be able to cut out all the cancer....(she could die within a week!)
My friend is in such a dilemma!!!
She would like to make the best decision for her cat....surgery or not????
I just wanted to hear from anyone with any experience or opinions on this matter...
We would be very grateful!!!!!
