This will depend upon exactly where on the stomach the lump is. If it is right on the midline just behind the end of the rib cage, it could be an abscess or hernia from a spay surgery or from the umbilical cord. If your female wasn't spayed, or was spayed after her first heat cycle, and the lump is between or around her nipples, it could be mammary cancer. If the lump is scattered somewhere else, it could be anything from an old scar to an infected spot to cancer.

If you are worried about it, I would suggest having your veterinarian take a look at it during your next vaccine visit. In the meantime, keep an eye on it to see if it changes in shape, location or firmness - if it does, go to the veterinarian as soon as possible.

My cat has a lump near his stomach what is it and what should I do?

idk i am worried cause my cat has the same thing... i hope its not cancer... :( Edit: That really depends on what you mean by "lump." Is it inside or outside? When you say "near his stomach" do you mean his ribcage? What you should do is take him to the vet for a check-up. He could have a stomach tumor, it could be that you're just feeling his bowels (which was what it turned out to be with my cat), he could have worms (you would see it in his stool if he had worms), or maybe a hairball (it happens, right?). It could also just be a pimple or a knot. You can't be sure until you have him checked out.

I have a 5 yr old chihuahua that has a lump on the right side of his rib-cage and if you touch it it hurts him what could this be?

I'm sorry to hear your chihuahua is in pain. he could have just bumped into something and got some swelling or inflammation. but it also could be something more serious like a tumor. but hold on. calm down it might not be a tumor. before you panic have a vet take a look at him and I'm sure he will be fine.


Can your stomach growl when you are pregnant?

I believe so. If you need food, so does a baby, and in the womb, that disgusting lump on your stomach does need it too. When you eat, some of it goes to that lump, and if you don't eat, you get so hungry and your stomach must growl louder than ever. plz send a vid of a pregnant stomach growling on youtube for me. -IQ
