Hi I recently adopted a kitten from a place called cat haven where I live his name is sunny well he was 2 months when I got him I did notice his fur felt a little dry figured it was due to him being treated for fleas or what ever stuff they used or maybe his diet so after I got him use to our existing 1 yr old cat named pebbles I gave him a bath all was well his fur was soft again had to change his wet food from the fancy feast kitten to what pebbles was eating cuz it was making his poop smell up the whole house I mean never smelled something so bad lol but after the food change his poo was normal smell well 3 days ago I noticed a small bump on the top of his head like the ball of a pen I thought well ok pebbles and sunny was playing to ruff didn’t think nothing of it just now I go to pet him the bump has gotten as big as the tip of my pinky finger I am like ok i don’t think this is normal mind you that you see nothing on the skin it’s under the skin so I’m like ok if I feel the body and find nothing maybe it’s a pimple or cyst so I feel around got to the back of his neck and find a big one the size of my thumb and my heart just sank I’m like ok it’s time for our first vet visit I was gonna go to the vet er but I’m like maybe I’m over reacting I need to calm down and wait until the morning and find a good vet I’m praying that it’s just cysts or pimples or something that antibiotics can fix and not cancer my husband is going thru cancer as we speak and he has thousands of dollars in medical bills as it is I don’t understand this his blood work was good before he left the cat haven they did say he had some issues and had to return to the vet but didn’t tell me why or what the reason was which is probably why he had the dry fur issue I’m just heartbroken atm worried my husband wanted this cat for him this kitten has not once left his side when he is home he would be heart broken to hear his new baby kitten has cancer too I’m just wanna know has anyone’s cat/ kitten have these type of lumps/knots and was normal or ok like not have cancer tomorow I will be looking everywhere for a vet to take us that has the best care and compassion for pets I will keep you posted but in the mean time please feel free to give me your exp or thoughts thanks
