It’s always something. always. Life with rats just wouldn’t be as much fun without an issue of some kind LOL. My old man is playing host to a couple of lumps now and I’m torn. I could leave them and just wait and watch (not my style really) or have them removed (looking like something I would do!). Problem with removal? Fergie is getting older, almost 21 months and he has never had the best respitory system. I am more afraid of having him put under than I am of the lumps at this point. They are both small and seem to be gowing extremely slowly. I know they dont bother him, it’s my issues that are causing angst here.

So I sit and wait, for now. I hope they dont grow larger, pray they are little more than bothersome cysts on an old man. I am still a bit leary of lumps. I know my beloved furries are prone to this sort of thing and it’s something I have resigned myself to dealing with.

Just once in a while I want lumps to mean nothing more to me than “how many lumps of sugar for your tea?” LOL
