Best Answer

First you should have the diagnosis verified by a veterinarian, if this hasn't already been done. "Dr. Google, DVM" is not a good veterinarian and provides a lot of bad information.

Once the diagnosis has been confirmed, your veterinarian will discuss treatment options. You can do surgery, radiation therapy or conservative medical therapy at home - each has its pros and cons and the best option will depend upon your individual cat's health status and medical history.
