One of my girls, 18 months, has a lump the size of a large grape on her side. It's where a nipple is. I touched it and she squeaked. I couldn't see a scab, scrape or any discolouring on the bump. So I have a feeling it's a dreaded tumour... I didn't notice it yesterday when they were all out, but I didn't do a body check either. It was very obvious to me today though so I'm sure I would have noticed if it was there.
If I just run my hand over her body I don't feel it. It isn't hard and doesn't feel like a ball or hard lump under the skin.
(She isn't usually puffy, the cat was out and she (rat) is extremely territorial of her space. Cat went away, fur went down).
