Paw Problems

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
My male cat has a strange problem. He has some sort of discharge on his left rear paw. He is not in any pain, he is not limping. He is running and playing normally. It is not bleeding, but it has a god-awful smell! He is going to the vet this week. Just wondering, has anyone else experienced something like this before? If so, what was discovered (if anything). Thanks!

I agree a foul smell is a sign of a bad infection. Its only going to get worse. Its better that you take the cat to the vets today and treat it before you end up with major problems! And large vet bills.

Thanks all, he is going to the vet. I spoke with them already about his problem. He will be going in. As I mentioned, he is not experiencing any obvious problems and has no signs of being ill. Good appetite, very playful, no pain, no symptoms of anything wrong. He is an indoor cat, never been outside in his 3 yrs. Thanks for the concern, didn't mean to scare anyone!

He is fine. Very small abrasion on his paw. Very difficult to see. Given some ointment and sent home with us. He was not happy at having been put in the pet carrier, but he quickly got over it at meal time.
