Pepper – RIP – She Had Surgery for Mammary Tumors But They Returned

3/26/21 – RIP Sweet Pepper. The neighbors said that she was left behind when her owners moved. She was on the streets when she was rescued by a friend of 4p1h. Upon examination, two large masses were found on this sweet girl’s body. This was in November, 2020. We authorized Dr. Zalac to see Pepper and provide us with her diagnosis. Dr. Z determined the masses were mammary tumors and we approved the surgery, knowing they could return. Also, Dr. Z was quite certain that a suspicious lymph node was cancerous. Unfortunately, the tumors returned and Pepper was in a great deal of pain. We were asked if Pepper could again see Dr. Z to cross the Rainbow Bridge. Pepper passed yesterday. We are grateful for her rescuer and her foster who gave Pepper great care and love for her last 4 months. – diana
