Cat has lump on bottom part of neck

She has just had a biopsy and they said it can take up to a week to get the results. They took three separate injections of fluid, the first was clear and the other two were slightly bloody. Does anyone know what this could mean or had a similar experience?

And she is nearly three years old.

Is it between the shoulder blades where she's vaccinated?

No, a bit further down and the lump moves.

My cat had a lump by his tail and the vet thinks it is a lipoma which is like a fatty lump when he put a needle in it the stuff was quite greasy that came put.
I hope that is the same for you as harmless.

Yes, that's what I was thinking and hoping, the fact that it moves. Are they not removing the lump?

No he said it's harmless, my neighbours dog has some and actually I have one too (!) and the doctor said to leave it even though it's very annoying for me.
I hope that is all it is, I know I was very worried when I felt the lump - on me and my cat - but very relieved that's what it was.

Vet phoned nothing sinister, may be a reaction to a flea injection she had about ten days before but they're not 100% sure.

Hi Pilates I'm really pleased you got good news from your vet and nothing bad to worry about 🙂

Thanks. She got into a fight on Friday night and now seems to have something wrong with her tail. I sense another trip to the vet 🙄
