My cat has several lumps in her stomach, and I can't take her to the vet because I don't have money and I'm a thirdie. She's eating and behaving normally. I hope they don't keep growing or aren't cancerous.

maybe your cat is pregnant and you just are fondling cat boobs.

My cat has had these balls for a while. She also has a somewhat elongated one, and they're scattered all over the place and appear shallow.

>>82677320
it probably isn't cancer

She's still young. She also behaves normally.

could be swollen lymph nodes
I work at a pet store but I'm fish and reptile so I only know a little about cats
what do you need to get her into a vet
>>
>>82677448
dw about it unless it changes
think about it this way, would you want them surgically removing? they are more than likely just skin tags, cysts, or some other nothing and surgery would be distressing and could introduce issues

She gets very nervous when she sees strange people and tries to escape and ends up re-ravening.

cats are carnivores. you don't feed it dry kibble, right?

A lipoma is a benign (non-cancerous) tumor made up of fat cells that can develop on a cat's body, including the belly.

Appearance:

Lipomas are typically soft, round, and moveable under the skin. They can vary in size from small peas to large masses.

Causes:

The exact cause of lipomas in cats is unknown, but they are thought to be related to age, genetics, and obesity.

Diagnosis:

A veterinarian can usually diagnose a lipoma based on its appearance and feel. In some cases, a biopsy may be performed to confirm the diagnosis.

Treatment:

Most lipomas do not require treatment. However, if the lipoma is large, causing discomfort, or interfering with the cat's daily activities, surgery may be an option to remove it.

Prognosis:

Lipomas are generally benign and do not recur after removal. However, in rare cases, they can develop into malignant tumors.

Additional Information:

Lipomas are more common in older cats.

They can occur anywhere on the body, but are often found on the chest, abdomen, or limbs.

Lipomas are not contagious.

If you notice a lump on your cat's belly, it is important to have it checked by a veterinarian to determine if it is a lipoma or another condition.
