Yes, I just spent 2 hours and $400 at the vet this morning. I hate walk in clinic, but this is how they punish flakes (like me) who miss their scheduled appointments.
Katy has to go back Monday and have a lump under her arm aspirated. Probably fatty cyst, but just close enough to lymph glands that we need to be sure. We tried to do it in the office today, but she was very sensitive about it. Another reason to be at least slightly alarmed. Of course, since she'll be under, they can go ahead and clean her teeth and cut her nails really good. Other than the cyst, she's great, maybe 5-10 pounds overweight, out of the 111lbs. But perky, good heart and lungs, bright eyes, shiny coat, negative on the heartworms.
Rusty is quite well, thank you, and beautiful teeth. Same all round perky and shiny as Katy; he might also lose a pound or two.
ETA: Katy's lump is in fact a fatty cyst. nothing to worry about.
