I just found this bump on my cat's back. I think it's fairly new since I've never felt it before today while petting him. It's pretty firm, and nearly as tall as it is wide. It's very round. I did gently squeeze it like trying to pop a pimple and it didn't pop with gentle pressure. I didn't try pressing harder for fear that it might cause pain. My cat didn't appear to be in pain or distress when I was poking or squeezing it though.

I'm not sure if it's a weird skin tag or a pimple or something more concerning that I need to bring him to the vet to examine.

What do you think? Does this warrant a trip to the vet? Or is it nothing to worry about?
