Help me please, about cuts and laserations?

1 Answer

Answer :

I bet the bump was a cyst that popped and therefore created a huge cut. This happens to my cat all the time. Either that or your cat must have caught the bump on something whilst out and about. Just treat it like any other cut, clean it, keep him indoors (with a litter tray and food and water) so he can’t tear it anymore and just generally keep an eye on it for a few days. If it doesn’t improve… go to the vet again.
