My 8 1/2 year old elderly gent Elvis Pigsley is at the vets today. I found an internal mass about the size of a golf ball, my vet thinks it might be a tumour but it is movable so he is hopeful it can be removed. He is in having surgery now. If it cant be removed he will sew him up and send him home anyway as Elvis is still acting normally and happily eating and drinking. Barry Pigalow and Daniel o piggle went along to keep him company. I just want my precious boy back home with me ?
 
Awww hope he goes on ok and they can remove the tumour
 
Oh no. Been there with Scarby - 200g tumour.

Poor Elvis. Sending love and healing to him and you xx
 
Oh no!

Poor poor Elvis
He is in the best hands now - let us know as soon as he comes round
 
Well there is good and bad news. The bad news is that the tumour was a very aggressive one that would no doubt have killed him if left much longer. The good news is that my vet managed to remove it all and Elvis is awake and eating and drinking :). I am just glad my precious boy is ok for now 8)
 
FANTASTIC! Well done Elvis!

Where was the CA? Scarby's was on the liver. Roger had to remove a lobe of liver with the tumour.
