6. The "new" vet took a biopsy

... don't know yet and am waiting for a call from her. She seems very good and I'm glad I took Jules there.

She put her on Comfortis which is something I was not thrilled about but the fleas around where I live are not being killed by Advantage nor Frontline PLUS and I've been flea combing all of them several times a day (seems like a rather futile effort but I continue) and vacuuming constantly it seems.

She suspects that the tumor may be from an old shot given to her at some point. She is a strictly indoor cat at this point in her life now and I have not vaccinated her in a long time.

As for Jules, she slept well last night right next to ye ol' flea bomb boy Mr. Fleabag I call him these days. Can't win w/this situation.

Will post again when I get the results of the biopsy (she said she'd call me today).

Thanks for asking Curmudgeoness.
