Osteogenic sarcoma
Talked to the vet today about the biopsy results and apparently this is what she had. This is not a "good" cancer. It is fast moving and can be very invasive. The lab did tell Dr. Jay that all of the tumor was removed.
Interesting fact: The tumor had bones growing inside of it along with other fibers. First I had a cat with a toe nail growing out of it's back and now I have one with bones growing inside of tumors. Go figure.
Another interesting fact: The lab told Dr. Jay that studies have shown that these types of tumors can be caused by rabies vaccinations.
Not so interesting fact: I think I may have found another "bump" on my baby. Plus, other than a couple of sentences on Wiki, I cannot find anything about how this cancer and it's effects on cats.
We have another trip to the vet coming up.
