Hi,
I have an 18 year old cat that had a malignant tumor removed from just to the side of his shoulder blades on April 20, 2010. I was told it was slow growing type and that Aki would probably die of old age. Now, less than four month after getting the original tumor removed I have found two growths on either side of the original tumor. I was wondering, with Aki being 18 years old if removing the new tumors would be a good option. He is eating and going to the litter box fine. In the morning he is very active and runs around. I want to do what is best for him. I don't have the money to get Chemo, and at his age I really don't know if it would be a good thing for him. With his age I was wondering if removing the new tumors would be the best option or if I should let nature take its course.
Thank you, any ideas on the subject would be greatly appreciated.
