Inflamed lip and swollen neck lymph node

[DanielBeltran]

Hi friends,
we rescued a cat few months ago. She is 6 months old and in the last three days has developed inflammation of the right top lip. Today I noticed the neck lymph node very swolen. She bahaves normal, plays and eats well.

here is a picture

I forgot, she got fleas

She needs to go to the vet. It looks like rodent ulcers (not caused by rodents), also called eosinophilic granuloma. They can be very painful. The vet can also treat for fleas.

I will bring her tomorrow to the vet. However, I saw that eosinophilic granuloma is not associated with lymph nodes swelling. Let's see. Thank you!!
