I took Mack to the vet today for another x-ray and leukemia test. It was negative. The x-ray looks better. There is still a mass but it is thought it is most likely asthma. So, we have two in the household with the problem. What we need to do is keep him on Revolution all year long once a month to prevent the heartworm and help the fleas. For some reason heartworms can cause a reaction after they have died and it is asthma. So, we are keeping him comfortable and we will go back in three weeks to see if he needs another steroid shot. But he was so good according to the vet. He was the only cat out of all the others that didn't have to be sedated. And the vet said she loves the fact he is a big purr box. Yea for Mack- it isn't as bad as thought. The tumor is still being watched though.
