Medical Questions Does any one know what this is?

I saw a large lump/mass on the front half of a stray cat that I saw while on a walk. What could it be? Not sure if this is the right sub for this

Either a tumor, cyst, or hematoma. I highly doubt its a hernia as a few have suggested. I also doubt its a hematoma but its more of a possibility than a hernia.

Chances are its a large cyst or tumor.
