The vet did say the cat had a polyp or small growth there. He said I
could go to a specialist to have it lasered out but that the cat was too
old 11 to try to put her to sleep for the operation. I tried to look on
the internet as to who does laser but couldn't find how to do it.


What a strange vet, I wouldn't think an 11 year old cat is too old for a
general at all. This year I had my Q (15YO) put under to have dental work
done and Worf (14) sedated for an ECG. Neither had any problems of after
effects.

I agree with Neil. 11 is not too old. I had a 16 year old cat put
under for dental work. Go to another vet.
