I took my cat to the vet, after I felt a lump on her belly. She is not in pain, and vet told that is not a hernia from her spaying surgery and it is probably a fat lump. She didn’t do a biopsy or any tests, told that she would monitor and if it grows will consider removing. Should I get a second opnion?

My cat has a hard lump inside by his stomach he also hasn’t use the bathroom in three days . Won’t eat or drink water and is basically moving from one spot to the next to sleep.

My cat Leo currently has 2 of these fatty tumors one on each side of his body. The vet did aspirate one of them and told me it was benign and not to worry about it. Well it's gotten bigger over the years and I assumed the other is the same. He's not getting any younger so I wonder if they bother him. He is very vocal and purrs all the time. He is no longer able to jump onto the couch but every once in awhile he acts like a kitten running through the house. Do you think I have anything to worry about in his elder years or just let him be and live his life out?

My cat has very large fat deposits on her abdomin and is very sensitive about touching them (will bite/scratch) she doesn’t show any signs of it bothering her. I just bought her from a shelter and would think they would check her out to see what it is, but either way I’m wondering if I should take her to the vet and see what it is, if surgery is the best option or if we should leave them? And what would a vet have to do to determine what should be done?

Hello. I just found a large, soft bulge on my cat's side. It seems to be at the tissue level, well below his skin, and about the size of my hand. I don't see any sign of an infection, but he is an outdoor cat. Could this have something to do with the lump? He may also be walking more slowly. He doesn't complain when I touch the bulge, but he mewed in pain when I picked him up--which is unusual for him. .

I adopted a 14 yr old Katrina Flood kitty whose owner passed away. She was very healthy and had her thryoid radiated about 11/2 years ago. Trina developed a lump on her hind leg that was causing her difficulties with walking. After a biopsy I was told it was some type of cyst. The vet drained it. It got bigger with more fluid. It’s been drained 3 times and now it’s filled up again and her leg down to her toes is swollen. I’m told they can’t remove it because it’s so large and she is only 5 lbs therefore they would need to remove her leg. Is there any other options for this poor girl? I hate the thought of putting her down.

My cat is named tipsy and I found her as a newborn kitten almost 17 years ago. She is a very active cat. And always very affectionate and happy cat. I took her to the vet a year and a half ago when I noticed a grape size moveable bump around the back of her neck area. Her vet said it was a harmless lipoma tumor and cuz of her age it was not a good idea to remove it. Her tumor is now the size of a softball. Is there any natural remedies to help shrink in. I have read iodine or apple cidar vinegar. Plz help me. I just need to know it is safe to put iodine on the tumor.

My cat is a about a year and a half old. He is an indoor cat with not much room to play although I give him toys and things to keep him occupied, along with occasional kitty play dates with my friends cat. I went away for the summer and he was at 15 lbs before I left, i asked my mom to switch his diet from dry food to wet food where he is in need of loosing weight. I came back after two months and he now weights 17lbs and has a giant lump in his throat.. im scared it may be cancerous and im taking him to the vet asap, but in the mean time I was hoping for maybe a bit of reassurance that he could be fine.. but any information is better than none even if it's not what i want to hear. He has had half his Vaccines and was supposed to go back to the vet to get the other half, but that was before i left. He was supposed to go back to the vet the week after i left but my mom forgot to bring him back and he is still yet to receive them. He is pooping just fine, and seems to be just as playful as before i even left. Is it possible that this is just a fatty tumor? I dont know what Id do without My little Milk meowing at the door everyday I come home after school:(

Just noticed My 12 week old kittens right lymph node is swollen. I see her all the time and for it to be as big as it is I would’ve noticed sooner so it must of happened quick. Haven’t noticed any change in appetite or behavior. Haven’t had vaccines yet appointment is this week. Just started her on new treats. Has recently been around another kitten and when we rescued her she was living with multiple other kittens as well and wasn’t taken care of the best. Also noticed she seems to be staring off into space not sure if that means anything or not.
