Hi. Frankie's lump on the side of his neck was metastisized lung cancer....
I would see a vet asap.

I just came into this thread & please take Ember in to see your vet! Any
lump in the neck area, especially after vaccinations there (which should
NEVER be done - NO vaccinations are supposed to be done in the scruff
anymore!) is suspect. Take her in asap & have it biopsied.

Ember is five and a half. She hasn't gotten any vax except for her first
rabies (I think) since I adopted her when she was seven months
old. Again, I think I'm being, as Ned Flanders would say, a "nervous
Nelly,"
but
that's not unusual.

Lance - how old is she? Vaccinations have not been given in the
neck/scruff in quite some time. Most of my cats have never gotten a
vaccination in the neck, but most of my cats are relatively young.

Jane,
The bump is on the side of her neck, I think. I don't think it's
related
to a gland.
It may just be a pimple. It doesn't seem to go deeper than the skin,
and
it's
small. After reading about vax site sarcomas, I don't *think* it could
be that. I don't
know where vax are given when they're given in the neck, but it's
certainly not
on the scruff. I think and hope I'm getting anxious over nothing.

Lance could the bump you discovered at Ember's neck
could be a gland ? Is it at the base of her neck?
