ive noticed a small bump on the side of my cat. its not noticable to see, but you can feel it a little when you pet him. it feels small, but you can feel something different than i have before. i dont remember feeling it before, but it may have been there and i just havnt noticed it. it is the skin and not a bone, because when you move the skin you can feel it in whatever area you move the skin too. it is on his left side around where his shoulder blade would be. his hair is black and deep his skin looks white. looking around the area where the bump is on his skin you can see no difference in colour or really anything to suggest theres anything there. it doesnt appear to bother him. he doesnt try to lick there anymore than anywhere else. he does lick himself in areas but more so for cleaning. sometimes when he licks himself in different areas it looks like he is biting? and he does sometimes scratch, but that is from fleas? we have recently bought him a new white flea colar. even while i felt around looking at the area it didnt seem to bother him. he walks/runs around the house like normal and nothing else about him seems unusual except that i can feel a small bump when i pet him.
any idea if this is something i should have looked at? or is this normal?
i know my dog has had a small bump since when got him that the vet has seen and said is nothing to worry about.
i thought i would post and get some thoughts. i get a little paranoid sometimes.
