About a week ago, I noticed a small scrape on Miss Nedicks's head, over her right eye. I thought it was the result of a fight between her and Nathan, as they had been pretty ornery due to the hot humid weather. I put a little Neosporin on it and it seemed to get better. Things have been relatively calm between the two cats since--just the normal stalk and pounce playing, nothing really aggressive--but a few days ago I noticed that Nedicks now has what looks like two small bruises on the back of her left ear (they are sort of reddish purple), and the scrape over her right eye seems to have reopened, though it is smaller than before. I don't think Nathan did this, and now I'm wondering whether he was even responsible for the first injury, but I'm at a loss as to where these things are coming from. Neither kitty has front claws, as their previous owner had them front-declawed. Does anyone have any ideas what is going on here? (I briefly considered that it might be ringworm, but it really doesn't look like ringworm.)
