Hello everyone,


One of female cat (which is about 10 year old) has a very large lump in one of her nipples.Unfortunately,I only discovered this lump about a week ago and now it has grown to be the size of a golf-ball. sad.gif

The lump is soft and and all fur has gone from that whole area.

Can anyone kindly tell me what it could be? I would be very glad to talk to any cat owner here who can advise/shed some info on this.My msn is david73msn@hotmail.com.Please kindly add me.


Thanks.

have you asked the vet on this? sorry i dont have any idea what is that but a lump which getting bigger is not a good sign i guess...

Made a house-call because I don't want to add more stress to my cat by taking her to the vet.

According to the vet,the large lump in her belly could be either hernia or tumor.

I believe it is mammary gland cancer. sad.gif

oh... sorry to hear that. What does the vet advice you to do? Is it curable? If the vet said it "could be"... its just a possibility. If both of the possibilities can be cured, I suggest you take her to the vet to confirm, and let the pro advice.

Poor her.. but I know she is a strong cat.

Hi.For now,the doctor wants me to observe my cat for 2 weeks if there's any change to its health,activity,etc.
If there is no change then he said we better just leave the lump alone.He says surgery is very risky because of my cat's old age.

Thanks.
