    pink/red growth above cat's paw?

    just an update... Went to Vet and he said can't be sure it's not cancerous unless we do biopsy but his inkling was that it was a benign cyst. I am applying hot compresses and got antibiotics for her and will go back in a couple of weeks... It did pop the other day and a dry, solid like...

    pink/red growth above cat's paw?

    Thank you for the compliment. She IS a pretty old gal. The pics are taken with a IPhone, which usually does pretty well, but it's just hard to get something very sharp on this. Even looking at the "growth", it's difficult to see it very clearly, what with her fur and all...

    pink/red growth above cat's paw?

    Thanks Catapult. I'm in CT/NY....I'll check into the traveling vet thing...my neighbor is pretty good about giving me rides when I need them.

    pink/red growth above cat's paw?

    Hello All, I just found a fairly large pink/red bubble/growth on just above my cat's paw on her back leg. SHe is in good spirits, it does not seem to hurt her to apply pressure to the growth. It's not inhibiting her walking, as it's just above the paw. It feels firmish. I've applied some...
