Title: Nipples
Post by: forever_missing_my_boys(Lisa) on May 12, 2007, 15:37:28 PM

is it normal for some female cats nipples to be bigger and more visable then other females
as u know i have 5 girlies all spayed

ive noticed makosis are much more visable and bigger than my other girls  :o :um:

is it anything to worry about?
im at the vets on monday so maybe i should ask my vet to have a look .

Hi Lisa, if you are worried, it may be wise to take her in when you go on Monday.......better to be safe than sorry.  I hope it's nothing to worry about, xxx

It sounds like it may possibly be a hormone problem but can't say for sure, fingers crossed it's nothing  :hug:

it could be a problem but it also may not. So dont worry. Monday isnt that far away. I have a spayed female and her nipples have gotten more noticeable with age and even have slight bold patches around them-but there i no problem there (the vet reassures me!).

Wait and see but do mention it to the vet-set your mind at ease.

Good luck :)
