Hi all,
There's this stray cat that my mom and I have been feeding him 2 to 3 meals a day for about a year. Yesterday, I noticed that there's bite wound on his neck with some dried blood. I checked it and it doesn't seems too deep and hence I applied antibiotics powder on the wound as of now.
Today, there's a wound on his lower chin with some dried blood as well. It seems like he got into another fight with another stray cat. His lower lips seems swollen as well. But he's eating normally. Just seems a little less active compared to usual.
His neck wound seems okay for today.
I called the local rescue team hotline and they directed me to their clinic for an appointment instead. Their clinic hotline is busy hence I emailed them and I'm still waiting for a reply from them.
This cat has always been a fighter around the community.
I've attached some images about it. Is there anything I can do to help while waiting for a reply from the community clinic? Or is it life and death situation that I'll need to bring it to a private vet?
Thank you!
