Hey all-
My cat is an indoor/outdoor cat, often getting into fights, and today I noticed one side of his face is swollen. I tried to pick him up so I could check it out and I noticed he felt warmer than usual, but then again it was 106 degrees today and is still really hot out so maybe it's that and not him running a temp?
I managed to grab a towel with water and iodine and kind of wipe his face with it so I could feel it and while he was squirming around, I managed to feel that it was a hard lump. I don't see any bleeding, and I don't know what's causing it. Was googling around and it said maybe an abscess, but I'm not sure. He is also not vaccinated
I don't have enough money for the vet so I would like some opinions on what it could be and if any home remedies are available for now until I can get him to the vet..please and thank you
