It could be an abscess forming. What is the history of this little one? How long have you had him/her? Any injuries upon intake that you’re aware of?

Does the area feel soft or hard? is it visibly growing on a daily basis? Wet the fur and see if there is any puncture or hole that you can find.
(Beautifully chunky lil guy, BTW. Good job!)

It feels hard and seems to be growing. No signs of any wounds
