I can't believe that my baby girl is now 11 years old! It seems like yesterday that she was carried through my door as a 4 month old skittish kitten!
I had her at the vets a couple months ago to have a lump on her head checked out. It was as I thought, a benign epidermal cyst and nothing to be concerned about other than cosmetic.
I booked her for the 25th to have all of the standard stuff done:
blood pressure
thyroid
electrolytes
CBC
Urine
Her teeth checked
I'm also going to book an appointment for next month to have her teeth cleaned and that cyst removed.
Wish me luck that there isn't anything serious with her health. Chynna takes her daily medication easily because she likes soft food and I mush it up in that.
Abby hates anything but her dry food, so medication would involve giving her pills/liquid every single day and that wouldn't be easy at all. She's skittish and trying to give her daily medication would result in her being stressed and upset and not trusting me. So unfortunately if she does require daily pills (blood pressure, thyroid etc), needless to say that she won't be getting them and it would be a matter of just enjoying the time that her and I have together and letting nature take it's course.
So I'm hoping my baby girl checks out ok. I'm all stressed out about taking her though. The last time I took her she was literally throwing herself against the inside of the carrier trying to bust out. She was so upset and terrified. I've never seen anything like it. I was so sad for her that I was crying
