What is this???? =0 Plz helpp

I noticed a few days ago on Ivory, that she has something like a small round pinkish thing that looks like the size of a grape bulging from the area inbetween where she goes to the bathroom. I have no idea what it is but it was smaller at first and started growing the last couple of days. No change in it from yesterday to today, but bedding is getting stuck to it, and she is always paying attention to it, trying to clean it. I was wondering if anyone would know wat this could be, or what its from. It started out [[from my other post]] about her leg and her foot not working very well, and the was very puffy in the back,,(almost kindof how male rats may look) and now this happened. Please help because i dont know what is wrong with her. Thanks alot for readingg.,,

You really need to get her to a vet. It could be a hernia, tumor, abscess, or something completely different. A vet will be able to tell you more, and give her the correct treatment.

Could be several things, but I had a girl with a lump that sounded like that, so did a friend of mine. In both cases it turned to be a malignant tumor. I'd get to the vet asap.

Okay, i know that is prolly wat im gonna have to do. But i dont think you understand how i described it;; it is not like a lump, it is [[not to be nasty or morbid or anythingg]] but it looks like her intestins are coming out or something. It looks pretty bad, and my mom sed it looks like its getting longer than it was last time she looked at it. I will call a vet, and i will try to get her in soon. I wish i knew wat this was.////

That could very much be that, because it is coming from that area. But what would cause that???

If it's protruding from her vagina, it does sound like a prolapsed uterus. This really is a medical emergency. You need to get her to the vet ASAP. The longer you leave it, the more likely she'll develop a nasty infection that can kill her.
I'd also put her on soft clean bedding. Fleece or paper towels are good for this. You want to keep everything as sanitary as possible.
ETA: It's also likely she already has an infection, which may have caused the prolapse. Tumors are another cause of a prolapsed uterus. A vet will be able to give you a proper diagnosis.
