I have a kitten, very affectionate and very playful. She has two 6-year-old cat siblings and a piglet sister, all of which she plays with regularly and aggressively, as they do (but don't worry, the pig isn't aggressive with her). She's so high energy that she also often entertains herself by darting around the apartment and rapidly climbing furniture and launching off of things. But she never leaves our apartment - hasn't been outside since the day we brought her in almost a year ago.
Likely as a result of all the wildness, we find that she has small cuts and wounds on her face (mainly nose/snout/cheeks), all the time. They are never severe, almost never bleed enough to drip, and they never get infected (suggesting they aren't from litter-dirty cat claws). Whenever the cuts show up, they heal in about a week, so it's not a major concern. But she's our 7th cat and we've never had one constantly getting little wounds on their face! Has anyone else encountered this? Is it just because she's so energetic and adventurous, always running into things?
