I still groom myself to look good!

After Fei Fei’s wound did not heal, skin biopsies were performed and this revealed a nasty skin cancer called squamous cell carcinoma. This cancer can be induced by harsh sunlight but can also develop in any animal. Humans get this cancer as well.

Unfortunately, this cancer was very aggressive and the decision was made to excise all of the cancer. This meant that Fei Fei had to undergo surgery to remove the entire ear canal. This was done and Lab results have shown that all the cancer has been resected cleanly. However, due to the aggressive nature of this tumour, there is no true cure but Fei Fei should be able to live a fairly good life till the time the cancer comes back again.

She is currently very well, only her appearances are not that perfect, BUT beauty is skin deep and she is the loveliest most affectionate cat!
