Hello everyone, my cat Garfield recently went missing for almost a week and was returned to me. He's got a wound on the side of his head, right in front of the ear. It looks like his hair was ripped out, and you can see the bone.
It's about a centimeter and it's white with redish veins. The edges are blackish (looks like the skin). He's been really mellow and shy, almost standoffish. He used to get along with my other cat and always came running for food, but he lurks around slowly now and runs away sometimes when I come near.
I don't know what to do. Will he be fine? Should I treat the wound myself? (as described at this site) What do you estimate a vet would cost for this?
I'd really appreciate help with Garfield, thank you!
