Our newest barn cat, Joey, was bit by a stray that came around last year. His tail is in very bad shape. We have him inside, and hope to get him to a vet. I am pretty sure he needs antibiotics. I may have to house the 3 barn cats inside the garage, and set a trap for this male cat that won't leave.
Kristina, how's the cat? You might want to try some aloe gel and turmeric. I use it on all cuts and wounds on the animals and us. I make a paste and spread it on the wound. It has antibacterial and antiviral properties and all kinds of other good things. It really heals a wound very fast. I hope he is better soon. I have 6 cats, all fixed. And there have been 2 old stray tom cats that would come around to eat. They would hiss at me and the other cats would run away from them. They finally both disappeared. I was glad. But living way out here people drop cats off all the time.
There was a big ad in Countryside about that ferelstat. My mom had hundreds of ferel cats at her place in S. Ga. and I kept meaning to get some for her. I wish you luck in catching all your cats, Kristina. And getting rid of the bad cat. I hope Joey is doing well today.
