Come with me to remove the largest mass I’ve ever seen on a pet rat! 🐀 Rats commonly get mammary tumors, which are often benign, but they can get so big they hinder mobility or become necrotic and ulcerated. Surgery can be challenging but is often curative. *I know breast cancer awareness month was last month but after having a baby I got behind and forgot this was sitting in my drafts. 😅 #rat #rats #zoo #exotics #wildlife #rescue #conservation #animals #pets #nature #vet #vetmed #veterinarian #veterinary #medicine #veterinarymedicine #veterinaria #medical #doctor #premed #prevet #vettech #breastcancer

Uterine cancer is not uncommon among older female hedgehogs. Fortunately, spaying can be curative! 🦔 #hedgehog #hedgehogs #hedgie #zoo #exotics #wildlife #rescue #conservation #animals #pets #nature #vet #vetmed #veterinarian #veterinary #medicine #veterinarymedicine #veterinaria #medical #doctor #premed #prevet #vettech
