Hello. I posted a couple times several weeks ago but I think my message never went through. The story was I found a good size lump on one of my ferrets (right by the penis). It was under the skin and I could move it around and it didn't seem to bother him. He was able to go to the bathroom and all. I took him to the vet and she said it wasn't attached to anything and said we could either run a biopsy on it, find out what it is and take it from there or we can remove it. I said to remove it. After surgery she called me and told me that this lump was really ugly (really dark and lumpy) and that she suggests sending it out for biopsy. So we did that and I haven't heard anything yet. I don't know if I want to find out now, after I found ANOTHER small lump on his chest this morning. I am scared that it is going to be something bad. I wanted to post to see if anyone has had this happen or if anyone would know what it is.

Thanks,
Megan
