Hi,
My cat has been acting a little odd as of late. Today, for example, he did not come downstairs with me in the morning for his breakfast - which he always does - and he has not showed any desire to be let out which, again, is usually a daily routine for him.
I was stroking him recently and I noticed a lump-like thing on the top of his head. So naturally I am quite worried now because I think it is very unlikely that the lump on his head and the fact he deviated from routine are not linked to each other.
However, I have no idea what the lump is on his head. It does not cause him any pain or discomfort I don't think, but I can't tell if it's in his fur or on the surface of his head. It's as if some sort of liquid has dried into his fur and has now hardened, giving it a tough, rough texture.
I think we will need to bring him down to our local vets, but in the meantime does the lump-type thing ring any bells with any of you people? It's very strange.
Thank you.
