My cat has a hard little bump right on top of his head. It
is the size of the average pimple and so hard I thought it
was a bone knob or something, but it moves around and so
is in the soft tissue, not attached to his skull.

He is the cat that gets itchy sometimes due to allergies
but this bump is not broken open as a spot that has been
scratched and irritated might be. He is an only cat so this
could not be a fighting or play injury from another cat.

He has had little fatty bumps at injection sites before
that went away, but this one is hard.

Do cats get pimples or pimple-like bumps? He is an
inside only cat. TIA    M.

I'd have it checked. It might just be a cyst, but I'd want to know.

My cat had one of these on his head. I squeezed it and it popped like a zit.
A bunch of puss, and then I never saw it again...

Hmm. I don't know if I want to do that. But thanks for the input.
If it is just a pimple-like thing it will go away.

To Karen--he gets regular vet visits so I will ask about it when he goes
next week. He misses his sister Noodles and has been acting a little
depressed since she went with my ex so he has to go in.
