Unless she has impaired health or some excellent reason to not
have surgey then surgery is the way to go, esp. with one that
young. At 5 she is about like a human in her 50s, so expect
some pre-surgerical testing to make sure that there are no
surprises that could cause problems and then go with the
surgery to give her a shot at a long chunk of healthy time.
