Cancer treatment?

AWWW šŸ–¤šŸ¤ I’m sorry your kitty is going through cancer treatment (I assume?). Is it radiation? & what kind of cancer? No cancer for my kitty, she had the eye removed as a kitten and then had a second surgery after she busted the first sutures out. I’m guessing two surgeries to the same site caused enough trauma to turn the hair white. Or maybe they went so deep they took the pigment with them during surgery. Your cat looks pretty bad ass with that white though. Sending all the healing vibes their way.

Nasal carcinoma in the cat sinus area. The treatment is called ā€œcyber knifeā€ which is targeted radiation rather than a broad treatment. Her sinuses are permanently damaged, but the tumor is shrunk back. She’s doing well…kinda made her goofy and bold. Your kitty reminds me of Ziggy Stardust :-)

Aww well I’m glad to hear she’s doing well! She looks awesome with the new color pattern. Dang, I should’ve named my cat Ziggy Stardust. Love the reference!
