Another odd thing - almost to the month, Meg and her mother both had a cancerous mass last year. We didn't even know it until we talked to each other after we had them removed - how weird is THAT??!!

I'm so glad that you both caught that! How is Meg doing now?

She's fine, thanks
It was weird, because for about a year, every month or so, she was throwing up, and we couldn't figure out why. We'd go to the vet, he put her on the special food, she'd stop. But there was no REASON why she was getting sick. Then I saw the bump on her leg, they aspirated it, sent it off to UGA, saw it was malignant, removed it, and when I started reading up on it, I found that they cause nausea - and she hasn't been sick since.
The class she had CAN surface again, but it's unlikely - but now that I know what the first symptoms are, I feel better. She's 10, and her Mom's 12, so getting these things are going to be more common
If I had enough property, I'd probably make weekly trips to the pound and just grab all the animals that were scheduled for "the chamber".....
