My cat got spayed 6 days ago and today I noticed that she has a lump at her incision site. When she is laying down or relaxed it is not there but when I pick her up and she get's stretched out a bit it turns into a big, hard lump. I tried to get photos but I couldn't because I was alone and I have to hold her with two hands to see the lump. Is this something I should be worried about or is it normal? None of my other cats ever had a lump like this when they got spayed.

I have the exact same thing. I thought it might be a kind of hernia and I went to the vet but it's inconclusive right now. I have to wait but I'm wondering the same thing
Hi! Although this article may help, you may want to email/call your vet and describe what you said in your post, just to be sure:

It's probably a seroma. Fluid build-up at the surgical site. Usually goes away on it's own after several weeks. My husband gets these everytime he has any type of surgery.
