Hello. Pretty much all of these look benign & not overly worrisome. But all new lumps, bumps & nodules should be pointed out to your veterinarian at Skittles next scheduled visit. If any of these lesions begins to change dramatically in size or color, or start to bleed, please have them evaluated quickly. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
