Early Saturday morning my husband and I had to take our cat, Cat (she's otherwise nameless), to the vet due to a nasty looking wound on her head. We get to the vet and sure enough she has three LARGE wounds on her ear and around it (our guess is mating gone bad). They cleaned it up to some extent and gave us antibiotics for it. She's in a soft cone until further notice and we're both miserable because of it.
My question stems from this morning: She just pulled her cone off and because of that, she pulled a scab off her ear so now she's flinging blood and such when she shakes her head. I've replaced her cone because she kept scratching at her ear. Is there anything I can do to make her feel better? She's presently trying to nap, but I know she's hurting and irritated. I wonder if removing the scab was a major setback as well.
Any thoughts?
