This isn't my cat, but next door's. He lives and eats mostly here but definitely knows where his home is and is loved and cared for.
Last week I thought he'd been injured by a fall - for the afternoon and the evening he was yowling when touched (though would purr) and hid away to sleep. The next morning he was better, eating and jumping up again and over the weekend is back to normal.
Just now, I've noticed a large lump on his ribs. When I explore it and stroke him, it's fine, he keeps purring - he's quite a timid cat and would let me know if he didn't like it. It's just one side and new.
When he was first ill, I told my neighbour and will tell her now about the lump, and definitely suggest the vet. I was wondering if anyone might have experienced this, or know how to treat it?
