Morning all,

Paddy did his usual 'rollover on my back, pleased to see you again' good morning routine today, and so I did my usual 'Good morning Paddy, here's your belly rub and kind words' routine.

During this routine, I often take the opportunity to check his underneath all over with my hand, from his chest to his armpits, feet to testicles etc. to make sure everything is as it should be.

This morning I noticed that his testicles feel notably larger, and very hard too, since the last check where they were more pea sized and barely noticeable.

He is 4 and a half months old. Is this the first sign of his testicles beginning to drop?

Many thanks for your advice.
