tamborine Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I noticed this on Bama's penis when they were running in the yard just now. At first I thought it was some kind of a tick, but on closer inspection it wasn't. The small speck under it was only a little piece of dirt. My first grey, Odd Cat, used to get little round black scabby things that bled profusely if the scab came off. But they were much smaller than this, and flatter. This is like a big raised fluid-filled (I think) blister. Could a bug bite or something cause a blood blister like this? I'm very worried - I've already lost 1 grey (Magic) to hemangiosarcoma.

Guest Energy11 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Goldie has these. They come and go, but she is healthy. My vet is Florida, told me they were probably from her being out in the sun. She's had them for years. too. Probably nothing to worry about, but, as always, it is good to run things like this past the vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaGreys Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Looks exactly like what Wayne had which ended up being a Plasmacytoma. But, it could be anything, best to have the vet take a look at it Quote Missing my little Misty who took a huge piece of my heart with her on 5/2/09, and Ekko, on 6/28/12 For the sick, the lost, and the homeless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerlinsMum Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hoping it's nothing :goodluck You could always email that pic to your vet and see if s/he thinks it's worth taking a proper look at - it's a very clear picture.

tamborine Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 I guess I'm going to take him to the vet. There are so many things it could possibly be. Even OSU would probably want to take a biopsy before saying it's nothing (which is hopefully what it is).

When I went through this with Wayne, my vet told me he would not name anything until the path report came back. Please keep us posted on what the vet has to say.

Guest bigbrindlebunny Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Yeah, Pete sometimes gets these blisters, on his tummy and butt. My Vet said not to worry about it, but I'm wondering what Bama's Vet said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamborine Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 Sorry for not posting the update! By time we got to the vet he had licked it so it wasn't a blister anymore. Vet said it's most likely nothing & to just watch it for now - it's healing up pretty well & almost gone. Weird place to get a blood blister, though!
