A bit worried :/

Hector has a quite large lump where his right testicle was taken out, this wasn't there a couple of days ago when I checked. It is hard to the touch (so hard that it almost feels like bone) but doesn't seem to be hurting him as he was happy for me to prod it. I took a pic:



Sorry it's not great it was difficult to get a decent picture of, as you can see I drew an arrow pointing to it, his left side is fine, no lump, squishy to the touch.

Looks like I'll be pleading for some time off to take him to the vets :S

try not to worry hun as it's not bothering him but definately take him to the vets as if it is the start of anything suspicious it's better to catch it early x
vibes on way just to be safe

A vet check is not a bad idea. It might just be a bit of scar tissue or something harmless, but best to have it checked.

I hope it's nothing to worry about

I would deffo get it checked out hunni, just to be on the safe side x

I agree with everyone else, it is probably best to get it checked out just in case. It's always better to catch something early if it's going to develop.

Hopefully it's nothing though and just a bit of scar tissue like Sparky said!

Sending you some hugs and vibes to little Hector that it is nothing worrying

It's good that there is no pain but I think the vet needs to have a look. Hope its all ok

Ok, I will plead with work to let me finish early on friday, and hopefully I will be able to get an appointment then

if i lived near i would do the run for you

As everyone else has said, but the fact that it isnt bothering him means its not an emergency. Hughie had a lump, which developed within hours, but he was off his food too.

Lots of vibes for Hector, i hope its nothing to worry about when you go to your appointment. xx

Mum is going to meet me at the vets with him so I don't have to go all the way home then back again (I live about 20 minutes away from our vets, but I work in the same town as them)

awww mums are precious,
i still miss mine

I hope he's ok, big hugs to you and lots and lots and lots of vibes for the gorgeous guy that he's ok

Good luck to you and Hector for the vet trip!

I hope he is better today love, will visit tomorrow and see.

Hugs

How is he today hunni?

how's hector zo any news?

Get him back to the vet it could be scar tissue or it could be an infection which could turn in to an abscess I would book him in for a check up on it .

* Oh I do apologise, I have a very bad habit of reading the first post then answering and I see you are taking Hector to the vet...Sorry, I must stop
doing this but I am usually passing by the computer and have a quick look when I answer*

Hope little squishy Hector is ok! X

Haha it's ok Maysie!

He is booked in for tomorrow at 6pm, I will check him over in a sec, I've just finished dinner so I'm not up with him yet!

Lump is definitely still there, he's not bothered by me touching the lump, but if I touch where the incision was he flinches, he's still fine in himself, ate all his veggies, and is currently chasing his treat ball around, so we shall see what the vets say

waiting eagerly for results tomorrow

He's fine, typically the lump had gone down by the time we got him to the vets I didn't have time to check it this morning but it was still there last night

The vet said it was probably just a bit of fluid that had built up

I'm glad Hector is ok

yay good boy hector

What a relief love, your weekend wil be a very special one now. Bless him, well done Hector hunnybunny.

Hugs
