Our ecuadorian squirrel is a 3 years old rescue - we recently discovered this lump on her inner thigh last Friday. It's like a skin wart, does not have a growth under the skin, but bled slightly after inspection. Local vet started her on an antibiotic cream 2x a day for a week (apply for 15 mins then remove) but it has not changed in appearance. Should the cream not show improvements, vet recommended a biopsy for lab tests.

I'd like to enquire this forums vast collective knowledge - do you know what this could be? Squirrel pox is one of my worries?

PS: I want to thank this forum for saving our squirrel from MBD a year ago. She got better so quickly with the advice found on this forum.
