Hard lump on Mithril’s head.

It seems to have come up really quickly. It doesn’t seem to be bothering him. And he’s completely his usual self. He’s not keen to let me press it but other than that shows no signs of pain or illness. He’s going to the vet on Monday.

Poor Mithril! Fingers crossed it's a bite/abscess and nothing more serious.

Love that picture of him - those EYES!

I don’t think so, it’s covered by his fur.

Cat bite abscess.

Could be, but there is no sign of a wound. And it’s hard.

How big is it and is it in the side tissue or agai st the skull? Does it feel hot to the touch? If its tender and he's not keen on you touching it then an abscess seems likely. One of ours has a cyst under her chin but it's painless and feels like a pea under her skin.
