    Default My squirrel has developed a lump.

    So I got Baby Cutter when he was 2 weeks old and he is now just past 3 months old. Today I noticed he had a lump under his right arm partly on his chest. It feels hard and movable, and the skin is red. But it does seem to hurt him or bother him. But I am still concerned. Any ideas??

    A picture might be helpful to determine what or possibility.
    Most likely an abscess, are there any others or other
    animals around him?

    No he is not around any other squirrels at the moment. He had a room all to hisself in the house. And this is the only place on him. No lesion that I can see on the lump

    Did you by chance ever get any answers about what this was?

    Hi Sunny&P and welcome to The Squirrel Board (TSB)!
    This Thread that you posted on has not had any activity for over 4 years! The original poster may not even be available now and, further; this old Thread, inadvertently came to an end without any definitive diagnosis, intervention or resolution being documented!

    I would like to make a suggestion for you and that would be to start a NEW Thread that pertains to your CURRENT concerns and issues so that these particular issues can be addressed by our Squirrel Community in "real time!" Please be as detailed as you reasonably can be and post any pertinent photos if possible! I would suggest using one of two of our Forums; IF this is an Emergency, use the "Emergency (Life Threatening) Help Needed" Forum and if not felt to be emergent; please use the "Non Life Threatening" Forum. Both of these Forums are at the top of TSB Website!

    Thanks and regards,
    SamtheSquirrel
