Dexter has not been well. Unfortunately, today we found out he has a mass in his mouth that is likely cancerous and some bumps in his abdomen near one of his kidneys. It’s a bummer but it’s been a bigger bummer watching him decline so quickly, and not living his best cat life. Is having a few tests that aren’t going to break the bank thankfully that will give us some more information, frankly there may be nothing we can do and even if we could, it’s going to be exorbitantly expensive.
I absolutely love our veterinarian Peachtree Dt. Thorndyke. She’s the most gentle and honest vet. I always know my fur babies are in excellent hands.
If you’re not aware of the Dexter story, check out my stories later today am going to put together a little montage of how Dexter came into my life and a really tough time in my life. I was finally not too busy to look up and see him— really see him. He had probably been wandering through my yard for ages, scrambling here and there scaring the s**t out of me at night! Showing up creepy in my windows— begging me to see him, yet, not sure if he could trust me. Here we are six or seven years later then he is a part of our family.
Orange tabby’s are special.
