What’s wrong with a lump on your cat’s neck?

There are many reasons for a bump on a cat’s neck. It can be a bulge caused by a vaccination, or if the cat struggles too much during the vaccination causing a subcutaneous haematoma it can also cause a bulge. Owners can usually help massage it regularly and it will disappear after a while. Secondly, it may be a parasite or flea bite that causes the skin to swell, in which case regular deworming is required. In addition, bulges caused by foreign body irritation or foreign bodies piercing the cat’s skin and not being removed in time, or problems such as neoplastic diseases, need to be brought to hospital for examination and diagnosis and treatment.
