Bindi is my 23 month old girl, chubby butt other wise healthy. She has lump and it hasnt grown at all. So I have been just watching, it wiggles, around her under her skin so it isnt attached...


So lucky me, picks up Mallymkun tonight, 20 months old, wheezer girl, deathly ill in october, spayed in august. And I will be double damned if I didnt find one on her in the same exact spot!

Here is my biter girls ........

it is crazy, same side same spot, same wiggly lump...

Is there something that could be spreading? I didn't inspect it since I plan on making a vet visit soon, friday, with a herd of rats LOL he will love me.
 
It is a rare occasions that I take one in, lol i always have a group. Usually a few from some groups lol.

Is this a normal place for a mammary tumor? this is really new on the blue one, I pick her up all the time. and give her meds so this just appeared.
 
nope on the back leg, it is her right back leg. That is the exact spot that bindi's is too.
 
There is mammary tissue all over the rat so that could be a typical benign mammary tumour. But could it be an abscess? Some rats like to bite other rats on the legs.
 
Possible she bites hard to look lol I will look when I get home.she has been on meds since oct already.
 
I cannot tell if it is an abscess or not. I usually wait to see if it changes colors but these are pretty new. so I guess i will see at the vet. they wiggle around, seriously i can almost do a full circle around her side with it.
 
Bindi- tumor I am going to see how fast it grows when it gets a bit bigger have it removed. She is 23 months old, chubby but healthy otherwise

Mally- he said her feels different from bindi's but I will probably have him look into her too. Her wheezy is nasally not in her lungs at all so I guess she will make noise for the rest of her life. she is 20 months old.

Loki has a heart problem his legs are colder than the rest of them... I will start a new thread for that.

Templeton seems ok, he tore his 3rd eyelid but it doesnt bother him, so i am leaving it be, he has been through enough in his life. His eyes get a bit red.

Horatio we are trying differnt drops on his eye, it looks good but still a bit stinky.
 
I knew that these problems were there...the eyes wasnt a huge concern, no damage to the eyes itself and i have been medicating for them :) I ran out of drops so i need to go anyway. the heart was in the air, since I was sure of the signs and listening was hard for me to do. He has his own post now, since I am trying to figure meds out.
