Worried sick, They're so small. I only ever found it yesterday, which worries me more. What I want to do is take them for their second injection on Thurstday and ask what the lump is, but what if it has grown gigantically since then? They still thake their stance for me to have to pay upftront, but would they reall sucrifice an animal for waiting a week?

Can you not ring the vet tomorrow Cologne.... and put your mind a rest?Thanx baz, yes I'll definitely call them in the morning, but, tbf, I have owed them ÂĢ110 for 6 years for my Buddy and I was proper skint. I have now paid half of it off and paid ÂĢ75 for Mutley beyin done and $90 for the jabs for the kids, Lots of money for me and I hope they see a bit of sence and have an imprompto excam. She is so tiny, but races around like a lunatic and eats much better than Henry. I can put all my fingers round it, I seem to remember something about that, but can't remember if it good or bad.

Could you perhaps Google it Cologne???
I'll try, but I've just found out I spellt her name wrong, so not much chance. 
Anybody know how to change the name of a thread? thanks.
speak to the vet in the morning cologne .. there's also the PDSA in Plymouth as money's an issue , rather than waiting and worrying till next appointment. Did you mean the lump doesn't seem to be attached to any underlying structure ? that's generally a good sign .
No working Baz or not understanding. Do I have to go out of this thread and back on the main page and then change it from there? 
Slinki, thank you. I can go right round it. It's the size of a malteser, but I'm certain, I didn't feel it yesterday. To top it all, she followed me into the bathroom tonight and, when I open the lid, she was in like a shot, I screamed, pulled her out, water everywhere and I managed to find a small towel, which she didn't quite appreciate.
awww no, a toilet diver! ! She'll not do that again in a hurry though!
Do what Slinki suggests Col and take the kitty to the PDSA. I found them brilliant with our animals when we needed to use them. You must qualify with your health problems.
Perhaps the lump is a tick or a bite or scratch that's become infected. One of our old cats got bitten by his brother around the bum and it came up as a lump. I found the lump, because he was licking it all the time, parted the fur to get a look and must have put pressure on it slightly.
It exploded everywhere. The smell was just indescribable 
So if you're poking have a bit of kitchen towel handy
My cat is 15 and has had a lump about the size of a 10p on her belly since she was 5. The vet checked and said it was just a fatty lump. No danger. It doesn't bother her so he didn't see any need to operate to remove it.
It might be nothing but I'd get her to the PDSA just to be on the safe side
Take them to the PDSA or Blue Cross, Cologne...better safe than sorry
Cologne, I hope she is alright.

Col, I agree with the FMs who have suggested the PDSA.
I would think you would qualify for their help.
Hope wee Liquorice gets better soon.
Cologne have you managed to change the title? I haven't been in this thread before.
I know finding a lump is worrying. but there's a greater chance it's just an injury of some sort.

I think Blizzie is right anyway, just rename the cat, much easier!!
Thank you all very much, I think I've done it now (changing the title|.
No way zazz, she's a basset allsorts, only name for her there is.

we like Liquires better though!!
Right, the vet just called me back, no indication of anything serious as she behaves like a maniac and eats and drinks well, keep an eye on it and she will check it on Thursday when they go for their follow up injection.
And nooooo, it's liquorice.

is there a picture of her in the mad cat laydeez thread? if not, why not?!
oh, and good news that the vet isnt too worried
Good to hear Cologne.
Maybe not quite 100% all clear, but a 95% all clear is pretty reassuring. 
ahh good . Hope that's put your mind at rest a bit
