The doctor gave me photos of the tumor that was removed from Cruella’s abdomen. The first photo shows the tumor in the doctor’s hands, so you can see just how large it was. The second photo shows the intestine going right through the center of the tumor. This explains why Cruella has always had to strain when taking a crap! Absolutely amazing!
I saw Cruella for a few minutes at the vet’s office this morning, but I couldn’t take her home. She was covered in stitches and staples and had blood stains all over her fur. And she was raising hell! I heard her barking and howling as soon as I walked in the door! She’s tired of being held captive in that cage, I’m sure. I’ll post a pic of the little girl after I pick her up today!
