I think my poor gerbil has a scent gland tumour :(
I know it can be operated on, but not sure if I can put the poor chap through it.
Earlier this year he had a suspected stroke. He recovered well and apart from a slight head tilt he is fine.
However, yesterday evening I noticed a sore patch on his belly and I am fairly confident it is a tumour.
He is about 3 years 3 months old, so he is getting on, but at the same time he is a true fighter so struggling what decision to make.
I am seeing the Vets this evening to find out for sure.
Should I send the old guy over the rainbow bridge given his age or give him a chance?
