hi, i had a little question about my cat. i noticed that since yesterday she had a little bump on her lower lip. today it seems like it didnt get any better but she still acts the same way and eats properly. it looks like those bacteria infections that i would get in the mouth thats sort of white and would hurt if i touch it. please help

I honestly can't see anything in the pictures because hey are a tad blurry(at least to me). 

Are you talking about a canker sore or cold sore?  If so, you need to take your little one to the Vet, as this could be "rodent" ulcers, stomatitis, feline herpes, eosinophilic granuloma, etc.  Whatever it is, it needs to be treated or he might start suffering from it.  It can get a lot  worse before it gets better if it's similar to a human canker or cold sore.

It may be normal, all my cats have something like that where their fang hits the lower jaw.  If you are concerned about it take your cat to the vet to have it checked out.
