Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 1 year old | 7 lbs
Hello My cat is one year old and he’s sterilized, I’ve noticed this acne or I don’t know what to call it on his abdomen 2 months ago i didn’t give it much attention until I saw it again today. Should i be worried?

From the photo this looks like a normal nipple. Male cats have nipples like females but they are small like in the photo. Usually four or so on each side. If that isn’t a nipple then it’s a benign wart that doesn’t need any treatment. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Melow.
