Thanks Everyone, it is a large soft lump and moves around easily, there does not appear to be any pain with it,you can visibly see it, now that i know it is there of course,on the positive side it has just appeared like over night, i would have noticed it when i picked her up before, so surely a tumour would be small and then grow and be hard, anyhow that is what i am thinking.

She is not in discomfort, we shall have to wait until Monday, to get it checked, i don't think it is a bite and an abcess,but you can never be sure, i really need this to be AOK, i have been having a terrible time with the kitties lately,and our finances are exhausted , and i just don't like my furbabies being ill, I could not bear it if Ellie had anything serious, i just love this wee character of a kitty to bits.

Let you all know when i know, why does a fatty tissue lump have to be removed though? I am curious?
