Okay, the other day, about a week ago at the MOST, I noticed a little bump on top of Mojo's head. Thought she probably did something to herself when we weren't home, and it didn't ook painful, so I brushed the idea out of my head that it was anything bad. I thought it was just going to go away on its own.

Where it is located:
When you are facing her, and she is facing you, you gently take her right ear in your hand and slowly pull it back, and the bump is on the head where the skin stretched from the ear being pulled. So it is right between the middle of the to of her head, and her ear. Another way to describe it, is the temple area. Anyways, the other night, Bjorn, my Fiance, and I noticed it had gotten bigger! It is only like a centimeter and a half across, but it sticks upward about 2 cm. It is pink in color, bu looks nothing like a pimple.

Could it be an abscess? Sounds like it might be to me especially if it is growing. Be forewarned, if it is, it will like burst & scare the heck out of you. Best to have a vet look at it. If it is an abscess, you could put her on some antibiotics & might avoid the explosion, hot compresses & all the ilk that comes with it.
