Cat belly with raised small meat granules

Cat belly with raised small meat granules may be due to mammary glands or tumors, or parasite infections. At this time, the owner needs to pay attention to the cat's condition and the changes in these meat granules. If the cat is found to be scratching, it is likely caused by mites, and timely deworming is necessary. If the meat granules continue to grow larger, it is necessary to take the cat to the pet hospital promptly to determine the specific cause and receive timely treatment.

  1. Mammary glands

Cats generally have four to six pairs of nipples, whether they are male or female, and they are usually arranged symmetrically on both sides of the chest and abdomen. Owners can pull aside the cat's hair to observe. If the raised meat granules are paired and neatly arranged, they are the cat's nipples, and owners can rest assured.

  1. Parasite infection

If the owner has not dewormed the cat for a long time and the cat is bitten by parasites such as mites and ticks, it may cause raised small meat granules. At the same time, due to itching, the cat will constantly scratch. It is recommended that owners pay attention to observe. If they find that the cat is scratching, it is likely caused by parasite bites. At this time, the cat's hair needs to be trimmed, and consult a pet doctor for external deworming treatment.

  1. Tumors

If the small meat granules on the cat's belly become larger day by day, the owner should pay attention and suspect whether it is a tumor. It is recommended to consult a pet doctor to see if further examination is needed.
