Thank you for posting Lynda! I see Dr. Mader was involved in the second one. He’s such a wonderful man and vet! Picture below is a tumor he removed from my girl Lola a couple years ago.

Wow! Where was it @jannb ?

I had a panther chameleon that had to have its eye removed because of a cancerous tumor.

That tumor was in her tummy. She had been spayed and I kept thinking she had eggs again anyway and kept taking her in for xray and ultra sound, that did not show eggs so finally Dr. Mader did exploratory surgery and found the tumor. Lola is still doing well and will be 4 years old this December.

It's good that you persisted!
