Ruminants being cud chewing animals digest their food in a fairly complex manner. One important role of the digestion is fermentation of the food in the largest stomach, the rumen. While this fermentation takes place, gas bubbles occur and typically the goat will belch quite often releasing this gas.. which is perfectly normal (and at times can smell really good but this is my opinion *S*)..
Cancerous basal cell tumors are the most common skin cancer in cats. Middle-aged cats are most susceptible to these tumors along with Persians and other long-haired breeds. Many breeds of dogs are predisposed to basal cell tumors, including Wirehaired Pointing Griffons and Kerry Blue and Wheaten Terriers.
Fibrosarcoma is the most common malignant soft tissue cancer in the cat. These tumors behave in variable manners, but many grow rapidly. Predilection sites used to be the shoulder, ears and feet.Almost 50% are now between the shoulder blades or on the back of the neck with 25% on the chest and flanks.ost older cats have immunity to the virus so, in older cats, solitary sarcomas are not usually FeLV-virus associated. There is currently controversy about the cause of tumors arising in the shoulder and neck area. Some of these may be due to previous tissue damage.
