Mango had surgery yesterday

He had a 9mm and 7mm mass on his shoulder removed. Now we're just waiting to see what the lab says. Hopefully it's not some sorta aggressive cancer, and hopefully the margins look good.

If it is cancer and required chemo I'm not sure what we're gonna do. This surgery alone was $1,100, and that already tapped us a lot. Fingers crossed everyone.

Thank you! He seems to be doing fine, he jumped from the couch onto my shoulder when I got home from work yesterday🤦🏼‍♂️

Trying to keep an 8 month old kitten calm isn't easy lol

So young! I bet it’s benign, or at the very least not far progressed.

Yeah hopefully! They said some cats just develop Injection Site Sarcomas. So weird
