Cat Lip Redness

[takasora]

Ive noticed this redness and swelling on my cat recently. He’s been eating and drinking properly. What is it and does it warrant a visit to the vet?

It could be a rodent ulcer, problematic if left untreated but easily cured. A vet visit would be a good idea.

Agree with possibly rodent ulcer. Get it treated, they hurt.

Good luck and please let us know how he does.

I agree, vet visit as soon as you can. these type of things are normally much easier to take care of the earlier you catch them! Do keep us updated!

Ive also noticed some white deposit pus looking thing on his lip now. Quite alarming. I’ve made an appointment for tomorrow.
