A few weeks back, my one year old cat began throwing up everything he ate. This went on for about two days, after which he began eating normally. A week after that, I noticed dried blood and a scab near his head, which I removed. There was a large amount of pus underneath it. I cleaned it daily for a couple of days, but today I noticed this where the scab was before.
Along with that, I saw him scratching his neck and licking/grooming that area frequently today. This is what I saw when I looked closer:
It's the raised area of his skin that's black in color, right underneath my thumb; it was also bleeding. I'm not really sure what it is since I haven't had cats before. Do I need to take him to the vet? How serious is this? Thanks in advance.
