My cat is an outdoor cat and of course for him to be a boy he has to show his dominance and fight other cats. He's declawed so fighting results in huge abscesses on his face. (This has happened multiple times already so we are used to him getting abscesses.) We have already given him shots for worms because of his frequent fighting so I'm not too worried about him getting worms. Anyways, he has one on the top of his head and another on the side of his face. They've already popped on their own. The one on the side of his head is still oozing and I've been wiping the puss away with warm water and a paper towel. I'm trying to keep this one clean as much as I can so it doesn't get infected. The one on the top of his head is what I'm most concerned about. It popped and already scabbed over. I think theirs more puss under the scab as well so I need to reopen it. I've tried soaking it with warm water, but he doesn't stay still for anything. He's a loving cat, but gets pretty grouchy if something makes him uncomfortable and I can't take him to the vet because of financial reasons. Is there anything I can do to take off the scab and reopen the wound so I can get the puss out and make sure it doesn t get infected?
