I think those are just her nipples. My cat has them too. My other cat’s weren’t as noticeable, so maybe some cat’s are just bigger.

Are you referring to the two bumps either side of her tummy, if so, they are her nipples, she will have 8 in total, nothing to worry about as they are normal.

Those are cat nipples :) Cats have 8 of them, even males. Nothing to worry about.

Yes, all mammals of both sexes have nipples. They appear on the fetus before the primary sex characteristics appear. That's why both sexes have them.

Don't feel sheepish about this. Lots of cat owners have this question. In male cats, they appear to be nothing more than a skin tag.
