Hi everybody,
A lump appeared on my cat's tail (she is almost 4 years old). I took her to the vet, and after he shaved her tail, it turned out the lump is much bigger than i thought. He tried to drain the wound, and a little bit of pus came out.
He is not sure what it could be either an old abcess or a tumor (either skin on bone). He gave her an antibiotic treatment for 10 days then depending on what happens (if it resorbs or it grows) he will decide what to do next. He mentioned that the tail may have to be amputated.
I'm worried sick and i can't find anything online that looks similar to what my cat has. If anyone ever seen something similar, please let me know what it was.
PS: my cat's behavior is normal, she eats, she plays and she doesn't seem sick.
