Hi. My cat usually comes in during the night and wakes us up. This morning he was just lying downstairs on his bed and he had clumps of hair coming off him. He was really not himself. Not walking around or playing. When we picked him up he was all limp and in shock. We took him to the vet and he said there are no broken bones. He has a cut on his tongue and on his head under his ear. His ear feels like it's been scratched too. His right eye and head is a little swollen and the White eyelid inside keeps sliding across. It doesn't usually do this. The vet thinks he has been hit by a car. As soon as he saw the cut inside his mouth he was adamant that's what has happened. I'm really worried now that the vet said that. I just thought he'd had a really bad fight. The vet gave him antibiotics and pain killers. His temperature was 38 degrees which is high and they want to see him again tomorrow. He's been up and eating food this evening, but he's still not himself. He's hiding most of the time and sleeping and he's still got hot ears. I'm just worried he might have some swelling in his head. Please help. I don't know whether to wait another 24hours to go and see the vet again.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
