My boss just came into work asking me about a lump on her 4 year old DSH male cat. He has just had a yearly visit to the vet about 2 weeks ago and there was nothing at that time. She thinks it just happened recently. She said he is acting like he doesn't want her to touch it and that she is noticing a small bit of a limp.
I've never had a cat with cancer before, but I'm sure they will get "lumps", just like dogs. Could this be the case? Is there another possibility (ie trauma to that area)? I also feel like 4 is just so young to have a "sudden" lump that would be cancerous...but it could happen.
What do you think? She is going to take him to the vet on Monday if it has not subsided...but I was just looking for other opinions.
