Hello, I hope someone will be able to help me. I am a new rat owner, i adopted my rat remi last year in august. Over the last month and a half he has developed a horrible growth on his lower stomach. I was told it was an abscess and to just leave it alone until it pops. However, it is growing in size. It has started to smell absolutely horrible, and there seems to be either black on it or a very dark red in spots. It isn’t effecting him, he is still running around, playing, eating and happy. I’m just worried about him and am not sure what to do. I live in the middle of nowhere so the vets around me do not specialize in rodants. If anyone has any advice please reply.
