Evening everyone, since this morning my cat has been in a lot of pain. She won't sit down on her bottom anymore and hasn't been outside... etc. The only time she moves at all is to go and eat. I'm really worried. I can stroke her and she purrs, but she cries out as soon as I touch the lump just above her tail. What should I do? And what could be the cause of this lump? \/p>

I should point out that she was fine last night, so this must have happened during the night, even though she stayed indoors.\/p>

\/p>

Thanks in advance.\/p>

Kind regards.\/p>

    Hi there,

    Personally, I’d head straight to the vet: it could be an insect bite, an abscess, a cyst, a tumour... only the vet will be able to tell you more and treat it properly.

    Best of luck and please keep us posted, thanks!

    Good evening, it might be a cyst or a tumour... Best to get it confirmed quickly by a qualified vet :)

    I tried to take a photo but she wouldn't let me and you couldn't see a thing, plus she miaowed when I touched it. It's a little lump, a bit like a big sting.
