For some reason the photo for my previous question didnt appear so i am reuploading the question with the photo. i would like to ask about a cat that i think is stray that is around my neighbourhood. I'll attempt to describe the situation in case the photo isn't uploaded again. the cat's stomach has some sort of lumpy feeling to it. it's nipples are paleish and have patches of blackish colour.

Hello, it looks like the cat may be currently nursing. Other causes for enlarged mammary glands include benign mammary hyperplasia. It she is not nursing, then you can expect the mammary glands to decrease in size over the next 3-5 days. If this does not occur, then she should be evaluated by a veterinarian. Hope this helps
