hi, my name is Brynne and i have a cat named Bubba, hes about over a year now and hes realy fat, when i pet his stomach i feel lumps but hes not sick, hes eating and drinking fine and hes not vomiting, hes playing like normal. could it be just fat or can it be cancer?

Hi the worse thing you can do is to try and guess. This will only lead to worry and worry never did anyone any good.

as for what the lumps could be, I'm afraid only a vet will be able to tell you. you may be feeling his insides, or as you say fat or indeed it could be cancer. the only real way to find out for sure and put your mind at rest and also provide treatment for your cat if need be is a trip to the vets.

best wishes Kate

well if he is just fat mabye you couls put him on a diet and see if it gets any better most cats that are fat are a liitle bumpy i have a cat and hes fat and a little bumpy. we put him on a diet and he isnt bumpy any more but if it doesnt go away then you need to go to the vet.
