Maharet

Maharet is my 16 year old kitty. I adopted her as a kitten from a shelter. Maharet is a sweet cat. As she's gotten older she has become more affectionate. Now she is so affectionate she is content to be petted and held constantly while purring all the while. A few days ago I noticed a huge lump at the top of the bridge of her nose. It seemed to develop overnight. I took her to the vet and it was biopsied. Unfortunately, it is cancer. The vet says it is a very rapidly advancing form. But Maharet is still as sweet and affectionate as ever. So we have an appointment with a vet oncologist and I've bought some alternative cancer treatment supplements. As long as Maharet is not in pain and is having a good quality of life, we will continue to treat her and try to kill the cancer.
