Hi there, I've just had my Luna out for a cuddle and noticed a little lump on her leg. I've booked her into the vets for Friday to get it checked out but thought I'd see what everyone thinks. It's hard and moves, no pain at all and she let's me touch it. She's perfectly fine in herself.

There are such a wide variety of lumps, but they all need a hands on vet check to determine the cause. A guess as to what it is from us wouldnt be possible or helpful. I hope all is well. Do keep us posted after the appointment

Hi!

It is very difficult to tell from the angle in your picture but if you are finding a similar slump on the other side of the body, then it could be a nipple.
If not, any lump should be be seen by a vet because all we can do is playing guessing games as to the nature of it that won't help you; there is such a variety of them around. The same also goes if one nipple has a noticeably different shape to the other; colour variations don't count.
