Poor Gromit. Our little babycat had a lump on the back of his neck. We had the vet look at it about 6 weeks ago, and it looked sebaceous and she thought it would just go away. Unfortunately, it kept slowly growing, so it needed surgery.

At the time of the surgery, the lump was about the diameter of a nickel. He got it removed Wednesday, June 9. The incision ended up being 4 inches in order to remove it entirely and get good margins around it in case it was cancerous.

Gromit is very confused by the incision and sutures. Poor little thing. He gets the stitches taken out in about a week. He seems to be doing okay, no signs of infection, but it really annoyed by the stitches and pain, and not back to being himself yet.

So for some happier thoughts - lots of pictures of Sue and Gromit snuggling. Even though Sue can be a punkass, he can often be found curled up with his little brother.
