Michelle, If you have a cat with SCC, I would highly highly recommend doing the salve. If you join the group (I can send you an email from the group and you can join it) the woman who runs it generally makes the salve and you can get it from her. It's not expensive. I have seen it work miracles in the time I have been in the group. In fact we recently used it for a tumor mass on my dog's tails - within two weeks the tumor had dissolved. Everyone sends pictures and you can see the progress - it is amazing. I'll send you an email from the group.
