Chocolate has a tumour :(

[Cavy2009]

It is benign, but surgery isn't an option because it may make things worse. Vet game him the once over, lungs fine, gut working fine and he checked his teeth. He's not in pain, but the vet said I would be better monitoring him and checking for any growth.

At present, he is shrieking his head off for carrots!

Poor Chocolate. It may be that the tumor will be slow growing and depending where it is, it may be liveable. Where is the tumor?

 

[Cavy2009]

On his belly. But his gut and lungs are currently fine x

I am sorry to hear that.

Chocolate has been enjoying some time on the grass. He looked really happy xx

Awww, sorry to hear about Chocolate, poor fella. In my experience, though, many animals live long and happy lives with benign tumours. x

I am keeping an eye on it checking its growth size. I will also be checking Chocolate's lungs and gut regularly with the vet. If he shows any signs of pain...I don't know what to do.8...
