Yes you can gently squeeze it to see if there is puss or sebum in it. It nothing comes out just leave it alone. You can use peroxide and neosporin on it. If it is firm or enlarges then I recommend a veterinary exam and perhaps a biopsy to find out what it is. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Gabby.
