My cat is acting normal otherwise, but has this odd red wound it looks like a scrape. he does go outside sometimes but I am keeping him until he heals. Do you think if he isn't ill otherwise this is best course of action? I dont' think there is infection to need antibiotics

It is the most economical litter I have ever used. I only put a layer of litter in the pan that will cover half the pan. As the cats use it, it turns to sawdust. When its all dust you dump it....

This is probably the single most important toy I ever bought. I got it when my boy was a kitten and two years later, he still plays with it every day.

Hmmm....I tend to always say this, but is it possible that it is ringworm? If he goes outside, it could be any of a million things. I suggest that you take your kitty to the vet to have him/her take a look.

Sounds like ringworm (that's not necessarily "round") - especially if the cat goes outside. Make an appointment with the vet. Ringworm is contagious - even to people.
