Can I ask for Jingles for my poor kitty?

Hey all...
I know I've been MIA for a few weeks, but can I still ask for Jingles for my poor George kitty? He is having a very rough day....

My poor boy has had so many health problems, and we have nursed him through them all....hepatic lipidosis, diabetes, hypercalcemia, fungal infections, you name it, he's had it.

But last night hubby noticed a strange swelling on his belly. When we finally convinced him to let us look at it, we found an open sore about the size of a quarter. I took him to the vet right away this morning, and they said it could either be an infected mammary gland (which would be no biggie...just antibiotics) or it could be a tumor (which would require extensive surgery). He is not a healthy cat, and I don't think I could put him through surgery at this point in his life.

So could you all maybe think good thoughts for my kitty for the next few days? We started him on the antibiotics, and if it is an infection, we should see some improvement in 3-5 days.

Here he is looking annoyed at me:

And with his brothers:

And sleeping on his favorite bed (that belongs to the dog! :teehee: )

Awww Chez. :( I always have extra-strength ***JINGLES*** to spare for an excellent putty-tutty. I'm sorry he's not been well and I hope it's just an infection.

Thanks guys...I knew I could count on ya'll! I'm trying to stay positive and hope for the best, but I have a bad feeling about all this. My vet said it could go either way, but....he doesn't have a fever, and the area around the sore is not painful to him. I would think that an infected gland would be terribly painful, right?
