Hello, my name is Bianca and I recently adopted my very first sphynx cat. His name is Maurice. I noticed this mole
on his leg. I’m not sure if he was born with it. I’ve emailed the breeder about it, but I am waiting for a response. He has a wellness check in 2 days so I can also have the vet look at it then. I just wanted to see if any experienced owners have seen this type of mole or have owned cats with moles too. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!!

Welcome to SL. How old is your baby and what is their name ? First guess is a simple skin tag…not red, not oozing or crusty is a good sign. Try to track any changes in size, shape or color. Let us know what the breeder shares. @bianca

Hi Bianca and Maurice. My boy Wilson does have a couple of what the vet has said are harmless skin tags , if a little smaller , but still hopefully the health check will help to set your mind at rest

I also bring a stool sample to check .
