    I am getting her an appointment but is there anything else I should do until then.

    Keep her clean and dry, perhaps cut the fur away from the wound so the area can stay clean.  If there is drainage you might want to soak the area with a wash cloth dipped in hot, salted water two times per day (morning & night).  Use Epsom salts if you have them, kosher or sea salt works too.  Salt the water until it tastes like the ocean.  Dip a clean cloth in the water and wring out to it isn’t too drippy (and the water should be hot, but not burn you or the GP), then place it over the wound and hold it there until the cloth cools.  Do this a few times per treatment, cleaning the area with the cloth at the end.  Use fresh salted water and a new cloth each morning and night.

    Good luck.

    This actually kind of looks like ringworm to me, yes. Not seeing the red but seeing the patch. When JD had ringworm it looked like this (not red; normal skin color). Flat, not raised. Have it checked and conclusively identified.

My Rescue Cat- Who We’ve Had For About 6 Months- Just Had Some White Discharge…

My rescue cat- who we’ve had for about 6 months- just had some white discharge come from her ear. Otherwise, she seems relatively fine. She’s eating/drinking normally. She had a sinus infection when we first got her and then again about a month later. Since then she’s been okay. Any thoughts? This has never been a problem for my other cat, nor any other cat I’ve had.

    As far as I can tell. It was only a little bit and was sort of dripped along the side of her head. I’ll take her to the vet tomorrow. I just wanted to be sure it wasn’t anything too serious or maybe just a build-up of ear-wax, etc.

She has now been vomiting for 2 wks and vet doesnt know what it is. 2 days ago she begun to lose mobility in her hind legs again and now can hardly walk, she is still vomiting and today poo just seems to be falling out of her butt and the outside of her bum looks quite red and swollen. She continues to have an appetite but is understably down in the dumps, as are we!
