My cat came in last night after fighting with his nail hanging off, he then came in and ate his food, drank water and didn't seem to car (it's no longer a baige carpet, now red). This morning he seems a little distracted and quiet. There was a lot of blood and the nail is still there. Should I try to remove the nail, will it heel up or grow another and push the old one out??
The vet won't tell me what to do without looking at him (which costs £22 just to see him).
Could something like this get infected??
This can't be an uncommon thing?
Thanks in advance
