Thanks a million, Dr. Lee! In certain positions, you can barely notice it which leads me to believe it is not firm - to me, it feels more squishy, like I can pinch it between my fingers and it almost feels like fatty skin (though I know it's not b/c of the location of it - right at the FeLV vacc site). Poor baby, I've been poking and prodding her all night which I think may have caused the area to swell and feel bigger to the touch. I'm a paranoid cat momma! I did not know how long a granuloma could stick around for. Should I request a fine needle aspirate? If it comes back as non-cancerous at this stage, what should my next course of action be? I've read the horror stories of excisions causing any cancer to metastasize, but is the same true if a benign mass (inflammation, etc) is excised? Sorry for so many questions, trying to ease my mind!
