My cat is a three year old manx tom. He kinda just does his own thing since I live out in the country. I haven't seen him in the last 3 or 4 months, but he suddenly showed up today. His mouth was opened and he was panting so I assume he was looking for a "friend". I brought him inside and locked him in a dog crate in my bedroom. I gave him a can of wet cat food and left him in the room alone while I ate dinner. After I had eaten, I let him out to wander about the house. He was very vocal. A constant meowing that I responded to with my own meowing. I thought it was pretty funny at first. I sat down with my brother to watch a show and Nemo, the cat, climbed up into his lap. He's never liked my brother, so when Nemo randomly bit his arm, it was no surprise to either of us. I called him over to me and he climbed up to perch on my shoulder. I scratched his head and he liked it for a moment, but then he suddenly growled and bit my face near my temple. Nemo has never been aggressive with me. Not once. It was really weird and I was afraid he would bite me again, so I went to put him back in the cage. When I returned to the living room, my brother pointed out that he had a hole in the side of his face. I went back and examined it, and it looked like a fluid filled hole, maybe a bit, it wasn't too bad. My dog, who is the sweetest dog you will ever meet (Boykin spaniel), started to bark and growl at him. I'm assuming she thinks something is up with him. She's now lying on the floor in front of his cage just watching him. I'm afraid that something is seriously wrong. It's a Saturday night, and I can't just take him to a vet, especially since my funds to do so are..lacking. Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated
