It would appear that one of my rats, Major Tom, has a tumour.
This is not acceptable.

How old is he now?

He's a year and seven months (born on 06/11/03).

Where is the tumor located?

Kind of belly, chest area. More to the chest area. And it's about the diameter of a quarter. Raised up less then half an inch, maybe quarter of an inch.

well, he is getting a little old...does it feel squishy, like there might be a little bit of fluid in it? Is it in an area that might be where a nipple would be? I saw an impressive mass that ended up just being an infected mammary (sp?) gland...it didn't hurt her, it just didn't look so pretty...

Keep an eye on it - see how fast it keeps growing (if it does) and that Major Tom keeps eating...it could be absolutely nothing - weight loss is the tell-tale sign of trouble and it sounds like MT is still okay in that department...
