Thanks, I've been a little conceerned because it changed, and she turned 10 in Jan. I'm keeping an eye on it, she's been licking it, but it doesn't seem to be getting any bigger or more sore looking. I think maybe when I pulled the ice balls off her paw, it may have taken a little skin with it. Since it's not getting any worse, I decided to wait till Monday & see how it is then. If it stays the same, I'll still call the vet, I really hope he'll remove it when she goes in.
